About CEKRX

Columbia Emerging Markets Fund Institutional 2 Class is a mutual fund aiming to provide long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of companies located in emerging market countries. The fund allocates at least 80% of its net assets to equities, including common and preferred stocks as well as securities convertible into these instruments. It seeks to capture growth opportunities in developing economies by targeting well-run companies positioned to benefit from secular trends, employing both bottom-up fundamental research and top-down analysis in its investment process. The fund’s investment strategy spans a diverse mix of sectors, regions, and industries within emerging markets, without tying allocations to specific countries or industries. Managed by an experienced team with deep regional expertise, the fund leverages global resources and a disciplined approach to identify companies with robust business models and sound capital discipline. This makes it a significant player for institutional investors seeking exposure to emerging market equities and their potential for long-term growth within a diversified portfolio.
