Our read on TUR

ETF.net Research

COne ticker, one country: about 70 Turkish companies, no regional padding. Running since 2008 at 0.59%, the same fee as the typical single-country emerging market fund.

Stated mandate

The fund seeks to track an index of Turkish equities, providing targeted single-country exposure to companies in Turkey.

Why people hold it

  1. 01A clean Turkey pure play. Roughly 70 Turkish companies, so the position isn't diluted by neighbors the way a broad emerging markets fund would dilute it.
  2. 020.59% expense ratio lands right at the median for single-country emerging market ETFs. Concentrated exposure without a concentration surcharge.
  3. 03Live since 2008 on iShares plumbing, tracking the MSCI Turkey IMI 25/50 Index, whose capping rules keep any one company from dominating the basket.

Worth knowing

  1. 01Single country, single currency. Lira moves feed straight into the dollar value here, on top of whatever the underlying stocks do.
  2. 02A smaller fund that trades moderately rather than heavily, so spreads can widen. Limit orders are the norm in this corner of the market.
  3. 03Cash comes back once or twice a year, not on a monthly or quarterly drip.
