ETF Country: Broad Africa

Investing in ETFs in Broad Africa carries unique potential for investors. Operating in this region means having access to many diverse economies, ranging from highly developed markets such as South Africa and Ghana, to their neighbors Nigeria and Egypt which are experiencing dramatic growth of their respective commodity sectors. This makes for a very different composition of the regional economy than more established markets, giving the chance to participate in a wholly different set of growth opportunities - especially useful when diversifying an investor portfolio. Furthermore, allocating part of one's investment into emerging markets through investments in ETFs can provide long term returns potentially higher than those available domestically. Adding Broad African ETFs to your portfolio may therefore be a way to give you exposure to many innovative marketplaces while reducing risk compared to direct stock trading or investing solely within one country.
