Navigating emerging markets: Seizing growth opportunities
Strong returns in US equities over the past decade have led many investors to reduce their allocations to emerging markets equities. Yet, for investors focused on capturing growth, emerging markets may present a new frontier by which to participate in the next wave of global economic evolution. Emerging markets equities can provide exposure to transformative forces such as digitalization, productivity enhancements, shifting cultural norms, and rapid urbanization. These dynamics are not just shaping the future of emerging economies; they are laying the groundwork for growth and innovation.
With more than two decades of experience and $8.3 billion in assets under management, Macquarie's Emerging Markets Equity Team takes a bottom-up, fundamental approach to investing for the long term. Join our seasoned experts as they discuss our actively managed investment solutions, including our newly launched Macquarie Focused Emerging Markets Equity ETF (EMEQ). Supported by a team of more than 130 investment professionals globally, our suite of focused equity ETFs draws on our research-driven culture to exploit market efficiencies.
SUMMARY
Topics will include:
- Why invest in emerging markets? Structural drivers, attractive valuations, and current market environment tailwinds.
- The team's time-tested investment philosophy and how their differentiated approach can identify competitively advantaged companies.
- Insights on why an active, bottom-up approach to investing is imperative to take advantage of market dislocations in emerging markets.

Investing in any exchange-traded fund involves the risk that you may lose part or all of the money you invest.
Carefully consider the Fund’s investment objectives, risk factors, and charges and expenses before investing. This and other information can be found in the Fund’s prospectus or the summary prospectus, which may be obtained by visiting the Macquarie ETF Trust resource pages or calling 844 469-9911. Read the prospectus carefully before investing.
The Macquarie ETF Trust Funds are distributed by Foreside Financial Services, LLC. Foreside Financial Services, LLC is not affiliated with any Macquarie entity, including Macquarie Asset Management and Delaware Distributors, L.P.
The Fund’s principal risks include but are not limited to the following:
Market risk is the risk that all or a majority of the securities in a certain market – such as the stock or bond market – will decline in value because of factors such as adverse political or economic conditions, future expectations, investor confidence, or heavy institutional selling.
Foreign and emerging markets risk is the risk that international investing (particularly in emerging markets) may be adversely affected by political instability; changes in currency exchange rates; inefficient markets and higher transaction costs; foreign economic conditions; the imposition of economic or trade sanctions; or inadequate or different regulatory and accounting standards. The risk associated with international investing will be greater in emerging markets than in more developed foreign markets because, among other things, emerging markets may have less stable political and economic environments. In addition, there often is substantially less publicly available information about issuers and such information tends to be of a lesser quality. Economic markets and structures tend to be less mature and diverse and the securities markets may also be smaller, less liquid, and subject to greater price volatility.
Company size risk is the risk that investments in small- and/or medium-sized companies may be more volatile than those of larger companies because of limited financial resources or dependence on narrow product lines.
Liquidity risk is the possibility that investments cannot be readily sold within seven calendar days at approximately the price at which a fund has valued them.
Industry and sector risk is the risk that the value of securities in a particular industry or sector (such as the infrastructure industry) will decline because of changing expectations for the performance of that industry or sector.
Government and regulatory risk is the risk that governments or regulatory authorities may take actions that could adversely affect various sectors of the securities markets and affect fund performance.
Geographic focus risk is the risk that local political and economic conditions could adversely affect the performance of a fund investing a substantial amount of assets in securities of issuers located in a single country or a limited number of countries. Adverse events in any one country within the Asia-Pacific region may impact the other countries in the region or Asia as a whole. As a result, adverse events in the region will generally have a greater effect on the Fund than if the Fund were more geographically diversified, which could result in greater volatility in the Fund’s net asset value and losses. Markets in the greater China region can experience significant volatility due to social, economic, regulatory, and political uncertainties.
Limited number of securities risk is the possibility that a single security’s increase or decrease in value may have a greater impact on a fund’s value and total return because the fund may hold larger positions in fewer securities than other funds. In addition, a fund that holds a limited number of securities may be more volatile than those funds that hold a greater number of securities.
Growth stocks reflect projections of future earnings and revenue. These prices may rise or fall dramatically depending on whether those projections are met. These companies’ stock prices may be more volatile, particularly over the short term.
A nondiversified fund has the flexibility to invest as much as 50% of its assets in as few as two issuers with no single issuer accounting for more than 25% of the fund. The remaining 50% of its assets must be diversified so that no more than 5% of its assets are invested in the securities of a single issuer. Because a nondiversified fund may invest its assets in fewer issuers, the value of its shares may increase or decrease more rapidly than if it were fully diversified.
