Having worked in emerging countries for more than forty years, Mark Mobius—considered the father of emerging markets investing—has learned a great deal about how these markets operate and where money can be made in them. Now, with The Little Book of Emerging Markets, he shares his extensive experience with you.

Page by page, Mobius puts his approach to these markets in perspective, with discussions of:

• The importance of emerging markets as an investment destination

• Investment instruments that allow access to these markets—from emerging market mutual funds to depository listings of emerging market companies

• The realities of emerging market risk and how to capitalize on it

• Finding future growth in frontier markets, which are younger and less developed than emerging markets

• Profiting from a firm understanding of the macro and micro views of an emerging market

Throughout the book, you'll also find "Field Notes" from Mobius' recent trips to countries considered to have emerging or frontier markets. These notes highlight industries to watch out for and offer a glimpse into the sentiment there.
