What is the TEMIT Investment Trust?
Managed by Franklin Templeton, with Chetan Sehgal leading the emerging markets equity team. TEMIT aims for long term capital growth by investing in companies across emerging markets, or companies that earn a large share of their revenue there. Emerging markets are the world's faster growing but less established economies, think India, China, Taiwan, Brazil and South Korea. The portfolio is mainly listed shares, with the option to hold a small amount in unlisted companies, and it is heavily weighted toward Asian technology and financial names. It is one of the largest and longest running emerging markets trusts available to UK investors.
What is the risk rating for TEMIT?
🌶🌶🌶🌶 🌶 5/5
Emerging markets sit high on the risk scale. On top of normal stock market ups and downs, you take on currency swings, political and governance risk, and the chance that a single country or company has an outsized effect. TEMIT's largest holding alone is a meaningful chunk of the portfolio, so concentration is a live consideration. Best held for the long term as part of a diversified portfolio.
