ASEA provides investors with broad exposure to the Southeast Asia region, comprised of Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, and the Philippines, offering a convenient way to gain targeted exposure to this economic regions within a single, cost-efficient ETF.

EMM is an actively managed ETF seeking long-term capital growth by investing in emerging market companies outside of China that may be positioned to achieve dominant positions in their markets, targeting early potential leaders across structural and cyclical growth opportunities. The Fund pays distributions semi-annually.

EMBD is an actively managed ETF that seeks a high level of total return by investing in emerging market debt, blending top-down macro views with bottom-up fundamental research in an effort to identify countries and companies offering superior risk-adjusted returns. The Fund seeks to pay distributions monthly.

EMC can serve as a complement to international allocations by targeting the structural consumption story unfolding across emerging markets, where a rising middle class is reshaping demand across interconnected industries.

Following a prolonged period of U.S. market leadership, EMC stands as a forward-looking vehicle to access the growth potential of emerging-market consumers, which may help position portfolios for future market developments as the architecture of global consumption shifts toward the economies driving the majority of global GDP growth. As an active strategy, EMC may also complement a passive Emerging Markets allocation.

EM countries hold over 75% of the world's land, 86% of its population, and drive 78% of global GDP growth, yet represent only 13.9% of market cap—signaling potential for growth-focused investors.1,2,3

EMC’s portfolio managers have extensive track records in active Emerging Market strategies. They focus on companies with high quality business models that seek to benefit from growth in domestic spending.
 

EMC delivers access to experienced stock picking across what we deem as the highest quality growth areas within emerging markets.

  1. Effective May 12, 2023, the fund acquired the performance, financial, accounting and other historical information of the Mirae Asset Emerging Markets Great Consumer Fund. Performance shown prior to May 15, 2023 reflects the return of the Mirae Asset Emerging Markets Great Consumer Fund's I shares with a NAV conversion ratio of 0.47 applied in connection with the acquisition. Market price returns prior to that date reflects the predecessor fund’s NAV return.
  2. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The performance data quoted represents past performance. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost and current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. High short-term performance, when observed, is unusual and investors should not expect such performance to be repeated.
  3. Performance is shown on a total return basis (i.e., with gross income reinvested, where applicable). Cumulative return is the aggregate amount that an investment has gained or lost over time. Annualized return is the average return gained or lost by an investment each year over a given time period.

About This Fund

The Global X Emerging Markets Great Consumer ETF (EMC) is an actively managed fund sub-advised in part by Mirae Asset Global Investments (Hong Kong) Limited. EMC seeks to invest in companies that are economically tied to long-term trends in emerging markets created by the newfound purchasing power of a rising middle class. The fund is not confined to the consumer staples and discretionary sectors, investing across a range of industries that may benefit from rising consumption.

How the Fund Works

The Global X Emerging Markets Great Consumer ETF (EMC) seeks to achieve long-term capital growth by investing in companies positioned to benefit as a rising middle class in emerging markets gains purchasing power.

The fund is actively managed by a portfolio team spanning Asia and the Americas.

The investment process integrates quantitative screening, sector-specialist stock analysis, and risk-adjusted portfolio construction, providing active exposure to the convergence of demographics, digitization, and domestic demand reshaping the emerging-markets consumer ecosystem.

What is Premium/Discount Chart?

The Premium/Discount chart demonstrates the difference between the daily market price of shares of the Fund and the Fund's net asset value (NAV). The vertical axis of the chart shows the premium or discount of the daily market price as a percentage of the NAV. The horizontal axis shows each trading day in the time period, and each data point in the chart represents the Premium/Discount on that day. The data presented in the chart and table above represent past performance and cannot be used to predict future results.

How can the Fund trade at a premium/discount to its NAV?

The primary explanation is that timing discrepancies can arise between the NAV and the trading price of the Fund. Since shares of the Fund trade on the open market, prices are affected by the constant flow of information received by investors, corporations and financial institutions. Depending on how this changing information affects investor sentiment, shares of the Fund may deviate slightly from the value of the Fund's underlying assets. The NAV of the Fund is only calculated once a day (normally at 4:00 p.m. eastern time). As a result, shareholders may pay more than NAV when they buy Fund shares and receive less than NAV when they sell those shares, because shares are purchased and sold at current market prices. However, due to the creation and redemption process that is unique to ETFs, market makers are able to minimize these deviations from NAV by taking advantage of arbitrage opportunities.

What causes these time discrepancies?

Close of Trading Times. Although both the NAV and the daily market price of the Fund are generally calculated based on prices at the closing time of the exchange (generally 4:00 p.m. eastern time), slight differences in this timing may cause discrepancies.

Time of Last Trade. Trading of Global X funds generally takes place during normal trading hours (9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. eastern time). However, it is important to note that the last trade - from which the closing price is determined - may not occur at exactly 4:00 p.m. eastern time. Therefore, changing market sentiment during the time difference may cause the NAV to deviate from the closing price.

International Holdings. The premiums and discounts for funds with significant holdings in international markets may be less accurate due to the different closing times of various international markets. Because the Funds trade during U.S. market hours while the underlying securities may not, the time lapse between the markets can result in differences between the NAV and the trading price.

Prior to listing date, the ETF operated as a mutual fund and therefore premium/discount information is not available from inception to listing.

The performance quoted represents past performance and does not guarantee future results. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted, and numbers may reflect small variances due to rounding. Standardized performance and performance data current to the most recent month end may be found in the Performance section.
