Going Beyond The BRICs

Back in October, I highlighted EG Shares’ new emerging market option, the Beyond BRICs ETF (BBRC). BBRC is the first ETF for emerging markets that specifically excludes the “BRIC” countries of Brazil, Russia, China and India.  This strategy caught my attention because I’ve never been a big fan of the BRICs as an investment theme. The countries comprising the BRIC were chosen more for their ability to be combined into a marketable acronym than for any coherent investment rationale.
