Analyst Report

EWM offers investors exposure to the emerging market of the Malaysia by investing in securities of companies that are based in the nation. Since many of the large caps in this fund are likely to not be found in other EM funds, EWM could make for an interesting satellite holding but is probably not appropriate as a core holding in a diversified portfolio. For investors seeking greater exposure to the Malaysian market, EWM is one of the only ‘pure play’ option available.
