Chindia mutual funds and ETFs invest in a wide range of asset classes, including equities, fixed income, commodities, and alternatives, in China and India. The largest two countries in the BRIC nations, China and India are the biggest emerging market economies in the world. These funds often have significant exposure to the financial services, materials, industrials, consumer discretionary and information technology sectors. Depending on the investment mandate, these funds can be further classified based on management style (active or passive) and asset class (single or multi-asset). The fixed-income portion of these funds may invest in debt securities varying by type (government or corporate), credit quality (investment-grade or junk), duration (short or long), and strategy (inflation-protected or sector-diversified). The equity portion of these funds may invest in common equities, and these can vary by market capitalization (small or large), dividend income (total income or high income), and strategy (sector-based or factor-based), among others. The alternatives portion of these funds may invest in strategies including real estate, currency trading, commodities, derivatives or other techniques relying on volatility, hedge fund, or quantitative strategies. These funds may be appropriate for aggressive investors who are willing to assume more risk in their portfolios in search of higher potential returns outside of the U.S. Many investment experts believe these two countries will drive world economic growth in the years and decades to come. However, these funds are not appropriate for conservative-minded investors as they come with higher levels of economic, political, and currency risk than developed market economies.
