iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ex China ETF

iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ex China ETF is an equity exchange-traded fund that seeks to track an index of large- and mid-cap companies from emerging markets worldwide, explicitly excluding China. The fund is designed to provide broad exposure to developing economies while allowing investors to address China exposure separately through other instruments or strategies. It follows the MSCI Emerging Markets ex China Index, a free float-adjusted, market-capitalization-weighted benchmark that covers a wide range of sectors across multiple emerging countries. The portfolio typically holds hundreds of stocks, offering diversified access to industries such as financials, technology, consumer, and materials within these markets. Managed by iShares, a BlackRock brand, the ETF is used by market participants as a tool for international equity allocation, regional tilts, and portfolio diversification within the global emerging markets universe. The fund distributes income on a semi-annual basis and operates within the diversified emerging markets category.
