About MAECX

BlackRock Emerging Markets ex-China Fund Institutional is a mutual fund focused on achieving long-term capital appreciation by investing in a diversified portfolio of companies operating in emerging markets, specifically excluding China from its holdings. The fund is designed to give investors targeted exposure to growth opportunities across emerging economies, while intentionally avoiding the Chinese market to reduce concentration risk and offer a differentiated regional allocation. Its investment universe spans a wide range of sectors and industries within developing markets, capturing both growth and value stocks across various market capitalizations. The fund employs a fundamental, bottom-up approach to stock selection, emphasizing robust analysis of company fundamentals in order to identify potential leaders within emerging regions. By excluding China, one of the largest emerging markets, the fund appeals to investors seeking diversification away from Chinese equities, as well as those looking to balance existing China-heavy portfolios. BlackRock Emerging Markets ex-China Fund Institutional plays a strategic role in diversifying global equity exposure within investor portfolios, offering access to high-growth markets outside of China.
