Our read on EMC
CMost consumer-theme ETFs just follow an index. EMC hires stock pickers: a Mirae Asset team in Hong Kong choosing roughly 70 emerging-market companies tied to a rising middle class, in whatever sector that spending lands.
The fund seeks long-term capital growth by investing in companies linked to emerging-market consumption trends driven by the expanding purchasing power of the middle class.
Why people hold it
- Actively managed and sub-advised by Mirae Asset's Hong Kong team, which hand-picks emerging-market names it judges best placed to capture domestic spending growth.globalxetfs.com
- Not fenced into consumer staples and discretionary: managers can own any industry sitting in the path of rising consumption, from banks to airlines.globalxetfs.com
- Born in 2010 as a Mirae Asset mutual fund, converted to an ETF in 2023 with the same team and process, plus daily holdings disclosure and intraday trading.globalxetfs.comsec.gov
- Active stock picking at 0.65%, the median expense ratio in its consumer-theme peer group, where most rivals simply track a basket.
Worth knowing
- Thinly traded, so spreads can run wider than in the category's heavyweights.
- No index to hug: the MSCI Emerging Markets Index is the yardstick, not the blueprint, so results ride on the team's calls.globalxetfs.com
- Index-based cousins in the cohort cost less, with MILN and PAWZ at 0.50%.
