ETF Ranking

Best emerging markets ETFs

45 emerging markets ETFs ranked by fees, AUM and performance, with a link to the sheet of each.

Emerging markets. An emerging markets ETF is dominated by China, Taiwan, India and Korea. "Ex-China" versions exist for those who want to limit this weight. Rankings exclude leveraged products and funds of less than 50 M$; performance is in the listing currency, dividends not reinvested, which favors accumulating versions.
