Description: EZA iShares MSCI South Africa December 28, 2025
The iShares MSCI South Africa ETF (EZA) aims to track an index that captures large- and mid-cap South African equities. At least 80 % of its assets must be held in the index’s component securities-or in securities that are “substantially identical” in economic characteristics. The index applies a 25 % cap on any single “group entity” to avoid concentration, and the fund is classified as non-diversified under U.S. regulations.
Key data points to consider: the fund’s expense ratio is about 0.55 % (annualized), and it typically distributes a dividend yield near 4 % due to South Africa’s high-yielding financial and resource stocks. The portfolio is heavily weighted toward financial services (≈ 50 % of assets) and materials (≈ 20 %), making it sensitive to local interest-rate policy, Rand exchange-rate movements, and global commodity prices such as gold and platinum, which together account for roughly 30 % of South Africa’s GDP.
If you want a more granular, data-driven view of the ETF’s risk-adjusted performance, ValueRay’s analytics platform offers free tools to explore sector-level drivers and historical drawdowns.
