Barclay Emerging Markets Index
This strategy involves equity or
fixed income investing in emerging markets around the world.
Because many emerging markets do not allow short selling, nor
offer viable futures or other derivative products with which
to hedge, emerging market investing often employs a long-only
strategy.
The Barclay Emerging Markets Index is recalculated
and updated real-time on this page as soon as the monthly returns
for the underlying funds are recorded. The number
of funds that are currently included in the calculations for
the most recent months can be found in the footnotes below.
Please note that the calculation for the number of funds is
time-stamped and that the number of funds will continue to
increase until all funds categorized within the sector have
reported monthly returns.
