About WIEMX
The Wasatch Emerging Markets Small Cap Fund Institutional is an actively managed mutual fund focused on achieving long-term capital growth by investing primarily in small-cap companies based in or economically linked to emerging market countries. The fund targets businesses with market capitalizations under $5 billion at the time of purchase, seeking out firms with strong growth prospects that are often overlooked by larger, global investors. Its portfolio spans a diverse range of sectors, with technology, financial services, industrials, and consumer cyclical companies among its top holdings.
