iShares Frontier and Select EM ETF (FM)

Profile

iShares Frontier and Select EM ETF is an exchange-traded fund launched and managed by BlackRock that provides investors with exposure to equity markets in frontier and select emerging market countries. The fund employs an active management strategy, investing in stocks of companies across diversified sectors and market capitalizations within these smaller and less developed markets. As a total market equity fund, it seeks to offer broad-based diversification across frontier economies and emerging regions, which typically feature lower liquidity and higher growth potential compared to developed markets. The ETF distributes dividends on a semi-annual basis and serves investors seeking to diversify their portfolios with exposure to frontier market equities, representing smaller and earlier-stage market opportunities beyond traditional emerging markets.
