In the past, emerging market investment has been dominated by exposure
to the largest emerging economies: the BRICs (Brazil, Russia, India, and
China). After a period of explosive growth, however, these countries are
now experiencing slowing growth rates, aging populations, and increasing
correlations to developed markets. This has driven investors to seek exposure
to the next group of countries that are both primed for rapid economic
expansion and can potentially provide diversification for their portfolios.
The Global X Next Emerging & Frontier ETF offers broad exposure to these
attractive economies by accessing the next emerging markets (ex-BRIC, South
Korea, and Taiwan) and frontier markets. The new Global X fund will focus on countries such as Argentina, Laos, Papua New Guinea, Chile, Mexico,
Bangladesh, Mongolia, Qatar, Colombia, Peru,
Gabon, Namibia, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Philippines,
Georgia, Nigeria, Tanzania, Egypt, Poland,
Kazakhstan, Oman, United Arab Emirates, Hungary, South Africa,
Kenya, Pakistan, Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand,
Kuwait, Panama, Malaysia, Turkey.
