What does the IKO ASX ETF invest in?

IKO invests in more than 100 large and mid-cap shares on the Korean stock market. This includes leading names like Samsung, Hyundai, LG and Kia. You could buy all of these companies yourself using a share brokerage account but that would be a very expensive and time-consuming process. So the IKO ETF provides investors with access to the Korean stock market in a single trade, all from the comfort of the ASX.

What do investors use the IKO ETF for?

Investors could use IKO to get exposure to a basket of just over 100 Korean companies which covers approximately 85% of the free float-adjusted market capitalisation in Korea. So, IKO could be used to diversify an ASX-focused portfolio internationally and take a tactical position in the Korean stock market.
