About this ETF
BEMD is designed to provide broad exposure to fixed-income securities from emerging markets issuers, including governments and companies with significant ties to these markets. It focuses on securities denominated in hard currencies like USD, Euro, or pound sterling. The investment approach uses fundamental economic research and quantitative analysis to identify undervalued markets, sectors, and securities, targeting those with potential credit upgrades or distinctive characteristics. The fund may invest substantially in high yield bonds. It has no maturity or duration limits and engages in short-term trading to pursue its objective of high total return. Derivatives, such as futures and currency forward contracts, may also be used for hedging, risk management, or return enhancement. Note that the fund may concentrate holdings in specific countries or regions, and securities may be sold if considered overvalued, if fundamentals deteriorate, or if other investment opportunities arise.

Latest News for BEMD
No articles mention this fund directly in the last 7 days; showing general ETF coverage.
Guided help: AUM is fund size. The expense ratio is the yearly cost baked into returns. NAV is the value of what the fund owns per share; the market price can sit slightly above (premium) or below (discount) it. Total return assumes distributions were reinvested. Every dataset shows its own as-of date because holdings, assets and quotes update on different schedules.
