Avantis Emerging Markets Value ETF

The Avantis Emerging Markets Value Fund is an actively managed mutual fund that primarily invests in undervalued equity securities of companies located within emerging market economies. By focusing on value stocks, which are typically priced lower relative to their fundamentals such as earnings and sales, the fund aims to capture potential growth in these dynamically growing regions. Targeting emerging markets allows the fund to participate in economies that may offer higher growth rates compared to developed markets, albeit with higher volatility and risk. The fund's investment strategy involves a rigorous evaluation of company fundamentals, financial health, and growth prospects to identify opportunities across a variety of sectors within these markets. By diversifying across different countries and industries, the fund seeks to mitigate risks associated with single-market investments. As part of a mutually diversified global portfolio, the Avantis Emerging Markets Value Fund plays a significant role in providing exposure to the growth potential of developing regions, thereby contributing to balanced portfolio diversification and potentially enhancing long-term returns.
