Our view
Why we like the fund:
This is a fairly concentrated fund investing in companies across emerging markets. Examples of emerging markets are China, India, Brazil and South Africa. The fund follows a 'quality' style, favouring companies that the manager believes have attractive characteristics, such as strong management teams and responsible management of environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues. The manager is an experienced emerging markets investor and is backed by one of the industry's largest emerging market equity teams.
How to use the fund:
Emerging market economies are growing at faster rates than more mature developed markets and this should enhance the opportunity. An emerging market equity fund should be a mainstay of most portfolios, but any allocation should reflect the slightly higher risk nature of the underlying investments and a long-term view (ten years or more) is needed. This approach to investing blends well with 'value' funds, which focus on companies with depressed share prices, expecting them to recover. An example of a value fund in this category is the Lazard Emerging Markets Fund.
