Review: Brighter outlook for LatAm’s largest economy

BlackRock Latin American Investment Trust (BRLA) is a long-established, actively managed fund investing in Latin American equities. Manager William Landers runs a 50-75 stock portfolio that is diversified by country, sector and market capitalisation. BRLA aims to generate an attractive capital and total return, outperforming its benchmark, the MSCI Emerging Markets Latin American Index. Brazil represents more than half of the benchmark weighting and the manager has moved to an overweight exposure to the country following recent political developments. In anticipation of political and market reforms, his outlook for the region is more favourable than it has been for some time.
