Franklin Emerging Markets

ETF description

This ETF invests in a wide range of large and mid‑sized companies in emerging markets across the globe. Emerging markets are economies that are in the process of rapid growth and industrialization, often offering higher growth potential compared to developed markets. The fund provides exposure to a diverse array of industries and countries, including China, India, Brazil, and South Africa, giving investors the opportunity to benefit from the economic expansion in these regions.

This ETF may appeal to investors seeking long‑term growth opportunities and are comfortable with the higher risks associated with emerging markets. It could suit those looking to diversify their portfolios by adding exposure to developing economies that offer the potential for greater returns but also come with increased volatility.
