Fund info

Parametric Emerging Markets Fund Class A is a diversified mutual fund that focuses on long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of companies located in emerging market countries. The fund employs a rules-based, top-down investment process that leverages both quantitative and behavioral characteristics specific to emerging markets, with a unique emphasis on providing broad exposure across more than 49 countries. By equally weighting countries within size and liquidity tiers, the fund ensures that larger, more developed nations receive greater portfolio representation, while still maintaining meaningful allocations to smaller or less developed markets. The strategy systematically rebalances positions, seeking to capture gains through disciplined buy and sell triggers in response to market movements. The fund holds a significant number of securities – over 1,200 at recent count – and spans a broad range of market capitalizations, covering both growth and value stocks across varied sectors. Its benchmark is the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, reflecting its goal to mirror the diverse opportunity set of emerging and frontier economies. The Parametric Emerging Markets Fund Class A plays an important role for investors seeking diversified access to global growth regions beyond developed markets.
