Andrew Van SickleHOST
Today, I'm talking to Adnan El-Araby, Lead Manager of the Bearings Emerging EMEA Opportunities Trust, also known as BMO.
Andrew Van SickleHOST
Welcome, Adnan.
Andrew Van SickleHOST

Adnan El-ArabyGUEST
And as emerging markets were becoming an asset class of their own, as different regions within emerging markets became more important, Eastern Europe was a large component of that.
Adnan El-ArabyGUEST
If you recall the BRICS acronym that was coined.
Adnan El-ArabyGUEST
And since then, the trust has evolved as emerging markets has evolved, as the benchmark has evolved, and also as the region and the capital markets within the region have evolved, where now the trust, we thought, we felt that our shareholders and the investors in the trust can essentially capture a lot more alpha across the entire region of EMEA.
Adnan El-ArabyGUEST

JumbaHOST
The second I realized, like, by round four, I'm like, oh, I'm picking all EMEA.
JumbaHOST
I'm screwed.
JumbaHOST
And sure enough, I was.
WyattHOST
Maybe the reason why EMEA was so bad this split was because you picked so heavily on this draft beforehand.
JumbaHOST
Maybe EMEA was the friends we made along the way.
Cian O'DuffyGUEST
And what I mean by that, this deal that we traded with SSE had a genuinely new underlying index.
Cian O'DuffyGUEST
So we had to make that index work in our systems, but also report the trade to a central trade repository under EMEA, which is like the European regulations.
Cian O'DuffyGUEST
None of this is very difficult, but it does need to be thought about before you trade.
Ed PorterHOST
Yeah, so
Cian O'DuffyGUEST
And what I mean by that, this deal that we traded with SEC had a genuinely new underlying index.
Cian O'DuffyGUEST
So we had to make that index work in our systems, but also report the trade to a central trade repository under EMEA, which is like the European regulations.
