iShares MSCI India Small-Cap ETF

iShares MSCI India Small-Cap ETF

The iShares MSCI India Small-Cap ETF (SMIN) provides US-listed exposure to smaller Indian companies by tracking the MSCI India Small Cap Index. It offers a way to access India's domestic-growth story beyond large-cap names, with a portfolio concentrated in smaller-cap sectors that can offer higher long-term growth potential but typically exhibit greater volatility and liquidity variability. Investors should be aware of risks specific to emerging markets — including currency fluctuation, regulatory shifts, corporate governance differences and concentrated sector exposures — which can amplify performance swings. As an ETF, SMIN can be traded like a stock and may suit investors seeking diversified small-cap exposure within India as part of a broader portfolio. This is general educational information only and not personal investment advice; values can fall as well as rise and past performance is not a guide to future returns. Check the fund prospectus for specifics on holdings, fees and index methodology before investing.
