 The
BNY Mellon Sustainable Global EM ETF is an exchange-traded fund that
seeks to provide investors with exposure to companies in emerging
markets that meet certain environmental, social, and governance (ESG)
criteria. The fund is managed by Mellon Investments Corporation, a
subsidiary of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation, one of the
largest financial institutions in the world.
As of September
2021, the BKES ETF had a net asset value of approximately $2 million
and held over 100 individual stocks. The fund's portfolio is
diversified across multiple sectors and countries in emerging markets,
with a focus on companies with strong ESG performance relative to
their peers. The fund's top holdings include companies in the
financial, healthcare, and technology sectors.
The BKES ETF is
designed to provide investors with a way to potentially benefit from
the growth potential of emerging markets while also aligning with
their ESG values. However, investors should be aware that investing in
emerging markets carries its own set of risks, including currency
risk, political risk, and economic risk.
The expense ratio for
the BKES ETF is 0.34%, which is relatively low compared to other
ESG-focused emerging markets equity funds. However, it is higher than
the expense ratio of some other non-ESG emerging markets equity funds.
Overall, the BNY Mellon Sustainable Global EM ETF may be a
suitable investment for investors seeking exposure to emerging markets
equities while also considering ESG factors. However, as with any
investment, it is important to conduct your own research and consider
your investment goals and risk tolerance before investing in the fund.
