Its portfolio is broadly diversified, typically maintaining exposure to more than 200 holdings across various sectors such as information technology, financials, consumer discretionary, and communication services.

With a substantial allocation to large-cap companies, the fund’s top holdings often include industry leaders like Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, Tencent Holdings, and Samsung Electronics, reflecting its emphasis on both growth potential and market stability. The fund is well-regarded for its competitive expense structure and aims to deliver diversified exposure to the high-growth opportunities available in emerging markets while managing the inherent risks through disciplined portfolio construction.
