XCEM tracks an index of emerging market companies outside of mainland China and Hong Kong. The index uses market-cap-weighting and selects the largest 700 companies by market-cap. XCEM is meant for those who seek more precise control over their portfolio allocation to Chinese equities (or for EM investors who simply wish to avoid China). By investing in China separately from other emerging markets, investors can dial up or down their exposure to the country. XCEMs unique geographic exposure clearly distinguishes it from other competitors. The index is reconstituted annually and rebalanced quarterly. Note: Prior to October 19, 2016, the fund had a different fund name and index name reflecting EGShares as issuer and index provider. Columbia acquired EGShares on September 1, 2016 and made no changes to the fund regarding ticker, index methodology, or exposure.
