Aberdeen Emerging Markets (AEMC) will be 20 years old on 22 June 2018. This is no small feat; it has survived numerous crises in emerging markets (EM), the distortions of ‘hot money’ and a long-standing market focus on growth sectors (which does not suit the managers’ value-investment style). Furthermore, since launch, it has delivered an NAV return of 646% or 10.6% a year, ahead of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, 541% or 9.8% per annum, and well ahead of the MSCI World Index, 256% or 6.6% per annum*.
