South Korea MSCI Capped ETF iShares

iShares MSCI Capped ETF (ticker: EWY) offers investors passive exposure to a broad basket of South Korean large- and mid-cap equities by tracking a capped MSCI Korea index. The ETF provides an efficient way to gain diversified access to Korea’s economy, which is skewed towards technology, semiconductors, consumer electronics and export-oriented industries. Investors should note currency risk (South Korean won movements vs their base currency), concentration risk in a few dominant sectors and geopolitical sensitivity tied to the Korean peninsula. As an exchange-traded fund, EWY trades like a share, typically providing intraday liquidity, but like all equity investments its value can fall as well as rise. Expense ratios, tracking error and liquidity are practical considerations — check the fund factsheet before investing.
