Sustainable Growth from Exciting Regions
Emerging markets are booming—driven by advances in technology and increasing personal wealth. Local companies are, in‐turn, capitalising off the thirst for goods and services from the rapidly‐growing middle class. These new, strong, local markets mean emerging markets are less reliant on developed markets such as the US—making them more resilient to any global financial wobbles.

Latest Insights
What are the Key Risks?
The value of shares in the Templeton Emerging Markets Investment Trust (TEMIT) and any income received from it can go down as well as up and investors may not get back the full amount invested. There is no guarantee that TEMIT will meet its objective.
TEMIT invests in equity securities of emerging markets companies. Emerging markets have historically been subject to significant price movements, often to a greater extent than more established equity markets. As a result, the share price and net asset value of TEMIT can fluctuate significantly over relatively short time periods.
Other significant risks include borrowing risk and share price discount to NAV risk. For more details of all the risks applicable to TEMIT, please refer to the Key Information Document, Investor Disclosure Document and the risk section in TEMIT’s Annual Report, which can be downloaded from our website – www.temit.co.uk
