GEM's ActiveBeta methodology chooses emerging market stocks based on four attributes of performance: good value, strong momentum, high quality, and low volatility. Despite the active moniker, the ETF tracks an index from its issuer. All four sub-indices pull their constituents from the parent MSCI Emerging Markets Index, giving each member a weighting based on factor criteria (small-caps are excluded per the parent index). Criteria include book value, sales, and cash flow scaled by share price, profit/assets or ROE, risk-adjusted returns, and daily standard deviation of returns. The four equally-weighted sub-indices are combined to create the index, any overweights to a particular name from one sub-index will cancel underweights from another. As such, the fund may exhibit moderate rather than radical deviations from the cap-weighted market.
