The Franklin FTSE South Korea ETF (FLKR) is a passively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks to track the performance of the FTSE South Korea Capped Index, investing at least 80% of its assets in the indexs component securities and related depositary receipts. The underlying index is designed to measure large- and mid-capitalization South Korean equities, giving investors targeted exposure to one of Asias major developed markets. The fund is classified as non-diversified, meaning it may hold larger positions in fewer issuers than a diversified fund would.
As a focused-region ETF, FLKR offers U.S. investors a vehicle for accessing South Korean large- and mid-cap companies, a market historically dominated by technology and industrial conglomerates such as those in the semiconductor and electronics sectors. Launched in November 2017 and listed on the NYSE, the fund trades on U.S. exchanges while its holdings are tied to foreign securities, requiring the use of depositary receipts to facilitate trading for U.S. investors.
