ETFlab Investment GmbH, the Munich specialist for exchange traded funds, is offering two new threshould country index funds. The ETFlab MSCI China comprises a broadly diversified basket of stocks of Chinese companies traded in Hongkong. The ETFlab MSCI Emerging Markets tracks a broadly diversified portfolio of companies listed on the stock exchange of 21 threshold countries. 'Thus we provide an access to the fastest-growing regions of the world', Andreas Fehrenbach, ETFlab's managing director, points out. 'Investors wishing to achieve above-average returns must engage there.' The demand for the funds of threshold countries has increased significantly following the financial crisis. Dr. Ulrich Kater, the chief economist of DekaBank asserts: 'The emerging markets have drawn their lessons from former economic and financial crises and have for the most part chosen to follow a solid fiscal course.' In addition, Kater sees the sustainability of the strong economic growth: 'In the years to come, the development will be supported by two demographic trends: On the one hand, there is a continuous strong population growth, on the other hand, the migration into the cities will continue unchanged.' The ETFlab MSCI China puts high value on high liquidity and broad coverage of the overall market. With currently 123 assets it represents 85 per cent of the market capitalization and has been the most comprehensive China index fund traded in Germany up to now. The highest weighted stocks are financial assets (38 %), providers (16.9 %) and telecommunications services providers (12.6 %). The ETF tracks the index in a fully replicating manner, which means that the original securities are contained in the fund assets, which are in compliance with the UCITS III guidelines. The management fee is 0.65 per cent annually. Dividend payout takes place up to four times per year. The index tracked by ETFlab MSCI Emerging Markets comprises currently 756 individual companies the stocks of which are traded on the stock exchanges of 21 threshold countries. The highest weighted of them are issues from China (19 %), Brazil (16 %), and South Korea (13 %). The index they are based on has the form of a performance index. Any accruing dividends will be retained. Tracking is performed by means of swaps. DekaBank, Deutsche Girozentrale, was chosen as a Swap partner. The management fee is 0.65 per cent annually. Both ETFs will be listed continuously on the XETRA and Stuttgart stock exchanges, as of July 20.
