Investment Summary

📎 Investment Objective

The iShares MSCI Brazil Small-Cap ETF seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of small-capitalization Brazilian equities, providing exposure to the Brazilian small-cap market.

🎯 Investment Strategy

The ETF employs a passively managed, index-based approach, investing in a representative sample of the securities included in the MSCI Brazil Small Cap Index. The fund aims to replicate the performance of this index, which measures the small-cap segment of the Brazilian equity market.

✨ Key Features

  • Provides exposure to small-capitalization Brazilian companies
  • Passively managed, index-tracking fund
  • Diversified portfolio of Brazilian small-cap stocks
  • Relatively low expense ratio of 0.00%

⚠️ Primary Risks

  • Concentration risk as the fund is focused on the Brazilian market
  • Potential for higher volatility compared to large-cap or diversified international funds
  • Currency risk as the fund's returns are subject to fluctuations in the Brazilian real
  • Liquidity risk due to the small-cap nature of the underlying securities

👤 Best For

This ETF may be suitable for investors seeking exposure to the small-cap segment of the Brazilian equity market as part of a diversified international portfolio. It may be appropriate for investors with a higher risk tolerance and a longer-term investment horizon who are comfortable with the inherent volatility and risks associated with small-cap and single-country investments.
