Featured Web Seminars Broadening your EM investment horizons — What
are Horizon Markets and why should institutional investors increase their
exposure to them?<http://e.ccialerts.com/a/hBRiRrxB7j4o2B7uYzdNsf31jPG/in150>

*Wednesday, May 8 | 2 pm - 3 pm ET*
Horizon Markets encompass the smaller emerging and frontier markets, which
are either heavily under-represented or absent from mainstream EM indices.
These markets are economically sound and offer outperformance potential,
but are often overlooked and poorly understood. This webcast will discuss

long-term case for investing in Horizon Markets, and how an allocation
could benefit an overall investment portfolio.
