Our read on each fund

ETF.net Research

BRZXCCorgi Brazil 2x Daily ETF

EWZSBiShares MSCI Brazil Small-Cap ETF

In short

BRZX No data

EWZS Brazil past the blue chips. EWZS tracks the MSCI Brazil Small Cap Index, a compact basket of roughly 70 smaller Brazilian companies that the country's large-cap benchmarks are built to exclude.

Stated mandate

BRZX No data

EWZS The fund seeks to track an index of small-cap Brazilian equities.

Why people hold it

BRZX No data

  • EWZS One job, done tightly: it follows the MSCI Brazil Small Cap Index and has hugged it closely, with no active drift or style creep.
  • The 0.59% expense ratio sits at the middle of the Brazil ETF pack, and it's the same fee iShares charges on its large-cap Brazil fund (EWZ) for an easier slice.
  • Running since 2010, one of the longest-lived ways to own Brazilian small caps in a US wrapper, and it distributes quarterly.
  • Lands in the upper half of the small group of Brazil ETFs we cover, ahead of the other dedicated small-cap option (BRF).

Worth knowing

BRZX No data

  • EWZS Single-country small caps are a rough ride: Brazilian equity swings and real-versus-dollar currency moves both land in the same share price.
  • Smaller and less heavily traded than the flagship Brazil funds, so spreads can run wider, especially outside Brazilian market hours.
  • Cheaper Brazil exposure exists (FLBR at 0.19%), but it's the large-cap market, not this small-cap slice.
