Emerging Markets Trust

Inception Date
1 September 2000

The objective of the Emerging Markets Trust is to provide long-term capital growth through access to the higher expected returns and diversification benefits of large companies in emerging markets. The Trust is designed to be a component of a global equity portfolio.

The Trust provides exposure to a diverse group of the listed ordinary shares or depository receipts of large companies, which together capture at least 40% of the market capitalisation of each approved emerging market. Investments in eligible companies typically will be in proportion to their market capitalisation. However, to manage turnover and take advantage of favourable trading opportunities, the Trust may deviate from precise market weightings.

The Trust currently has exposure to companies in Brazil, Chile, China, Czech Republic, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Israel, Malaysia, Mexico, Philippines, Poland, South Africa, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, and Turkey.

An equal target weighting for country allocation is employed among the emerging markets, with some smaller countries receiving half weights in relation to the larger countries.

This is only a summary of the Trust. For a full description, please consult the Dimensional Australian Resident Trusts Product Disclosure Statement.
