GWX holds a broad basket of developed ex-US small-cap companies. The fund does not limit itself to any specific industry, instead choosing to invest in a broader portfolio across all sectors. At each rebalance, GWX eliminates companies with a market-cap in excess of $2B, a policy that tilts the portfolio smaller than some of its competitors and may lead to a more focused small-cap exposure. It's worth noting that GWX includes South Korean companies in its index, which some index providers would consider part of emerging markets. GWX employs a sampling method to track the index, which is reconstituted annually and rebalanced quarterly.
