Fund Holdings CSVFund Objective
Seeks investment results that correspond (before fees and expenses) to the price and yield performance of the S&P; Emerging Markets Core Index.
Index Description
The S&P; Emerging Markets Core Index is an equal-weighted index designed to measure the market performance of up to 116 companies that S&P; determines to be representative of all industries domiciled in emerging market countries, subject to a 15% country cap.
Reasons To Invest
- A diversified core holding: EMCR is a diversified, equal-weighted core emerging market portfolio with exposure across 16 countries. Diversification does not ensure a profit or protect against loss.
- Reduced industry concentrations: Conventional benchmarks weight heavily towards industry groups that have already driven historical growth and are more mature. EMCR's investment process uses a capping methodology to diversify into less mature industry groups, positioning the Fund to capture potential future growth.
- Pure emerging market positions: EMCR offers pure emerging market exposure by excluding positions in South Korea and Taiwan. Although these countries were graduated to developed status by the IMF in 1997 and generate revenue primarily from developed market consumers, many emerging market funds still have positions in one or both countries.

Emerging market investments involve risk of capital loss from unfavorable fluctuation in currency values, from differences in generally accepted accounting principles, from economic or political instability in other nations or increased volatility and lower trading volume. This fund will concentrate its investments in issuers of one or more particular industries to the same extent that its Underlying Index is so concentrated and to the extent permitted by applicable regulatory guidance. Concentration risk results from maintaining exposure to issuers conducting business in a specific industry. Small cap and mid cap companies generally will have greater volatility in price than the stocks of large companies due to limited product lines or resources or a dependency upon a particular market niche.
