The iShares MSCI Italy ETF (EWI) is a passively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks to track the performance of large- and mid-cap segments of the Italian equity market. The fund invests at least 80% of its assets in the component securities of its underlying index, which is constructed using a free float-adjusted market capitalization methodology-a standard approach that weights constituents based on shares readily available for public trading rather than total shares outstanding.
As a non-diversified fund, EWI concentrates its exposure in a single country (Italy), making it more sensitive to country-specific economic, political, and currency risks than broader international ETFs. The underlying index targets the same broad- and mid-cap equity segments that make up the bulk of Italys investable stock universe, which is historically weighted toward financial services, industrials, and energy companies.
