Matthews Emerging Markets Discovery Fund (MEMS)

Overview

The Matthews Emerging Markets Discovery Active ETF specializes in investing in small companies located in emerging market countries, with a particular focus on locales such as China and India. This ETF operates by allocating at least 65% of its net assets, including funds borrowed specifically for investment purposes, into the common and preferred stocks of these small companies. Moreover, it commits at least 80% of its net assets, again including borrowed funds, to investments in the common and preferred stocks of companies situated within emerging market countries. As a non-diversified fund, it concentrates its investments more heavily in fewer sectors or companies, which can lead to greater volatility and investment risk.
