Our read on EMEM

ETF.net Research

DEmerging markets with a stock-picker at the wheel: Sophus Capital's EM team runs this active Nasdaq-listed fund, which keeps at least 80% of assets in emerging market equities and can concentrate rather than shadow an index. The fee for that judgment is 0.65%.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation.

Why people hold it

  1. 01Actively run by Sophus Capital, the emerging markets team at Consilium Investment Management, so country and sector weights are a manager's call, not an index committee's.nasdaq.com
  2. 02Non-diversified by design: at least 80% of net assets in emerging market equities, with room to concentrate instead of mirroring a benchmark.finance.yahoo.com
  3. 03Delivers that active approach in a plain 1940 Act ETF wrapper on Nasdaq: intraday trading, standard creation and redemption plumbing.nasdaq.com

Worth knowing

  1. 01At 0.65% it costs more than the typical fund in its EM group (median 0.49%), and index rivals sit far below: VEXC at 0.07%, BKEM at 0.11%.
  2. 02Launched in 2026, so there is little history to judge, and trading is light next to the category's index giants, which can widen bid/ask spreads.
  3. 03Objective is long-term capital appreciation, not income; it has not established a distribution track record.
