Emerging Markets Investment Trusts

There doesn’t seem to be a lot of EM ITs for basic Index Investors to dip a toe in. I like JMG JP Morgan Emerging Markets on LSE. Could you add it to ISA/Invest?

EMIM is on the platform and I would recommend it.

But EMIM is an ETF, and for sectors like EM; Private Equity and Small Caps I’d prefer an IT to “pick winners” and resolve liquidity.

Fair enough but I would not pay larger fees myself for something almost the same, for example…

JP Morgan top 4:

TAIWAN SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING 7.07%
ALIBABA GROUP HLDG LTD 5.43%
TENCENT HLDGS LTD 4.35%
SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO 3.73%

EMIM Top 4:

ALIBABA GROUP HLDG LTD 6.29%
TENCENT HLDGS LTD 5.73%
TAIWAN SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING 4.06%
SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO 3.26%

and the rest similiar too, hardly much difference to warrant those fees IMO

Hmmm… Good point…

Look at Pacific Horizon Investment Trust (PHI), really strong performance. Think T212 are generally poor on IT provision

Agree, I hope to see this improve soon. I’m waiting for Monks and Edinburgh Worldwide to appear!
