When theMSCI Emerging Markets Index (MSCI EM)launched in January 2001, the market cap weight of the Chinese equity market was just above 6%.

Fast-forward two decades, and itsmarket cap weightis now equivalent to one-third of the emerging market (EM) equities.

MSCI EM Index – Exposure to China

As the Chinese market continues growing, investors with broad EM exposure have been left with a 33% position in a market that has an incredible amount of both headwinds and tailwinds, making it complicated to implement their specific asset allocation views.

WisdomTree is launching XCtheWisdomTree Emerging Markets ex-China Fundallowing investors to unpack the Chinese exposure in their EM position. Investors will now be able to combineXCwith other China-specific exposures like theWisdomTree China ex-State-Owned Enterprises Fund (CXSE)to scale their exposure to their desired asset allocation.

Methodology

TheWisdomTree Emerging Markets ex-China Fundwill track theWisdomTree Emerging Markets ex-China Index (WTEMXC), which rebalances on an annual basis and provides investors with exposure to non-state-owned companies (non-SOEs) in emerging market countries excluding China.

The investment thesis behind excludingstate-owned enterprises (SOEs)when investing in emerging markets is one thatweve written about in the past. Companies in which the local government has a significant ownership interest (defined as greater than 20%) have exhibited conflicts of interest in their management and tend to have lower profitability than their non-SOE peers. Excluding SOEs also tilts a portfolio toward higher growth sectors like Consumer Discretionary, Health Care and Communication Services, which reflect the current makeup of EM economies.
