Abstract
In this study, the author examines and compares the US market risk exposure and true diversification benefits of emerging markets closed-end funds and exchange-traded funds. The author uses a two-factor econometric model and orthogonal returns to isolate both, US direct market risk and true diversification. Results show that exchange-traded funds that invest in emerging markets are a better vehicle for US-based investors to gain international diversification. In comparison to closed-end funds, exchange-traded funds provide truer international diversification and have less exposure to US market risk.
