FYI: (This is a follow-up article.)
Franklin Templeton launches three new geographically focused ETFs, Franklin FTSE Saudi Arabia ETF FLSA, Franklin FTSE South Africa ETF FLZA and Franklin FTSE Latin America ETF FLLA. These ETFs are linked to market cap weighted foreign stock indexes and listed on the NYSE (see: Goldman Sachs Launches TIPS ETF).
Many investors are looking to go beyond broad-based emerging markets or developed markets portfolios to capture the differences in performance that individual countries or regions can experience at different times based on a variety of market events,” said Patrick O’Connor, head of global ETFs, in a statement. “We offer investors access to a large proportion of this universe in order to make these tactical allocations using passive ETFs.”
