Between active, passive, thematic, country specific, and regional investment strategies \u2013 there are various ways to access the potential outsized growth at discounted valuations often sought in Emerging Market (EM) assets. Moreover, adding EM exposure to a portfolio not only allows investors to access the potential growth opportunities in these markets, but it also adds diversification. Research has shown that including EM equities in a diversified portfolio can help reduce overall portfolio risk, while potentially improving returns.<sup>2<\/sup>&nbsp;The question is, \u201chow much?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-key-takeaways\">Key Takeaways<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Establishing a baseline exposure to EM and then tactically deciding whether to be overweight or underweight from that reference point is a popular approach to EM asset allocation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>As of January 2025, the Global X ETF Model Portfolio team allocates between 4% and 5% of its equity exposure to Emerging Markets within its multi-asset model portfolios.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Having an EM allocation within a portfolio may help reduce overall portfolio risk while potentially improving returns.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-assessing-three-frameworks-for-em-allocations\">Assessing Three Frameworks for EM Allocations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Following the release of our&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.globalxetfs.com\/global-x-2025-emerging-markets-outlook\/\">2025 Emerging Markets Outlook<\/a>, a central question among allocators has been determining the optimal allocation to EM. General consensus points to roughly 3% to 7%, however, the broad range spans between 0% and 20%. In this piece we look at three different ways to establish a framework for what base level of EM exposure is appropriate. Allocators can then tactically decide whether to be overweight or underweight from that reference point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We start out by pointing to the MSCI All Country World Index (ACWI) and its 10.4% position in EM countries.<sup>3<\/sup>&nbsp;This means that to stay \u201cequal weight\u201d to this broad global market index, one would have slightly above 10% of their portfolio in EM assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1100\" height=\"574\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.interactivebrokers.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/02\/250212-EM-Asset-Allocation_04-1100x574.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-218868 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/02\/250212-EM-Asset-Allocation_04-1100x574.png 1100w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/02\/250212-EM-Asset-Allocation_04-700x366.png 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/02\/250212-EM-Asset-Allocation_04-300x157.png 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/02\/250212-EM-Asset-Allocation_04-768x401.png 768w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/02\/250212-EM-Asset-Allocation_04-1536x802.png 1536w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/02\/250212-EM-Asset-Allocation_04-2048x1069.png 2048w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1100px; aspect-ratio: 1100\/574;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although 10.4% may seem high to some, one can argue that this figure doesn\u2019t show the correct representation of EM\u2019s potential impact on the global economy.
