About BGEWX

Baillie Gifford Emerging Markets ex China Fund Institutional Class is an open-end mutual fund designed to offer investors access to growth opportunities across emerging markets while deliberately excluding exposure to Chinese companies. This fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in common stocks and equity securities of companies located in countries represented in the MSCI Emerging Markets ex China Index. Managed with a growth-oriented and active, bottom-up stock selection approach, the portfolio typically holds between 40 and 80 companies spanning diverse sectors such as semiconductors, internet, banking, oil and gas, and mining. Notably, as of late 2024, significant allocations included Taiwan and India, reflecting targeted country exposure within emerging markets. The fund’s exclusion of China aligns with rising investor demand for dedicated China strategies, enabling a focused approach to the rest of the emerging markets landscape. It features a relatively concentrated portfolio and a low turnover ratio, emphasizing a long-term investment horizon. The Baillie Gifford Emerging Markets ex China Fund Institutional Class is benchmarked against the MSCI Emerging Markets ex China Index and is structured to serve institutional investors seeking specialized regional diversification and growth potential outside of China.
