JPMorgan stocks the emerging supermarket
David Jones-Prichard
Retail investors will soon be able to access the earnings potential of as many as 25 emerging market equities following the development of a new JPMorgan product.
Emerging Markets Plus (EM+) is a structured unlisted warrant issued over the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund, an exchange-traded fund that is cross-listed on the Australian Securities Exchange.
Commenting on the release, JPMorgan vice-president, equity derivatives and structured products David Jones-Prichard said investors are increasingly recognising the ability of emerging markets to outperform the developed world in both economic growth and equity returns as a result of shifting global output and growing domestic consumption.
“Barriers to entry can be costly and difficult to overcome. JPMorgan’s EM+ offers Australian investors an easy way to access the growth potential of emerging markets, with the added benefits of principal protection and annual income payments of up to 8 per cent,” he said.
