XEM seeks to provide long-term capital growth by replicating, to the extent possible, the performance of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, net of expenses. Under normal market conditions, XEM will primarily invest in securities of one or more iShares ETFs and/or equity securities issued by issuers located in emerging market countries.
XEM's current principal investment strategy is to invest in one or more iShares ETFs. In addition to or as an alternative to this strategy, XEM may invest by employing a Replicating Strategy, a Sampling Strategy and/or through the use of derivatives. More information on these investment strategies and additional investment strategies that may be used by BlackRock Canada and/or BTC in managing this iShares Fund can be found under the heading Investment Strategies .
