AVEM

The Avantis Emerging Markets Equity ETF (AVEM) invests in a broadly diversified pool of publicly‑traded companies across emerging‑market countries, covering large, mid and small caps and spanning sectors such as technology, financials, consumer discretionary and industrials. Its actively managed, factor‑based strategy tilts toward stocks that exhibit lower price‑to‑book valuations and higher profitability metrics, aiming to capture excess return relative to a market‑cap benchmark while maintaining broad geographic exposure, especially to Asia‑Pacific economies. The fund is suited for investors who want long‑term growth potential from emerging‑market equities, are comfortable with higher volatility and currency risk, and prefer a systematic, value‑oriented approach rather than a purely passive index track.
