FRDM Profile
The Freedom 100 Emerging Markets ETF aims to invest at least 80% of its total assets, excluding collateral from securities lending, in the component securities of its underlying index or in depositary receipts representing those securities. This focused strategy ensures substantial exposure to a curated selection of equity securities in emerging markets, allowing the fund to track and reflect the performance of these high-growth regions effectively.
The underlying index is designed to capture the performance of approximately 100 equity securities from emerging market countries. This index emphasizes a diversified portfolio of leading companies across various sectors and industries within these developing economies. By concentrating on a fixed number of equities, the index seeks to provide targeted exposure to key players in emerging markets, offering investors a focused approach to capitalizing on growth opportunities in these regions.
As a non-diversified fund, the ETF does not spread its investments across a wide array of sectors or asset classes but instead concentrates its holdings in a specific set of emerging market equities. This strategy allows for a more concentrated investment approach, potentially enhancing returns from high-growth companies in emerging markets while also introducing higher volatility and risk compared to more diversified strategies.
Managed by Freedom Index Funds, the ETF benefits from the firm’s expertise in emerging markets investing. The firm's approach involves rigorous analysis and selection of high-potential equities within these rapidly growing economies. By leveraging its deep understanding of emerging markets, Freedom Index Funds aims to provide investors with a precise and effective means of gaining exposure to a dynamic and often lucrative segment of the global market.
