SPDR S&P Russia ETF is an exchange-traded fund.  The investment seeks investment results that, before fees and expenses, correspond generally to the total return performance of an index based upon the Russian equity market.  The fund employs a sampling strategy in seeking to track the performance of S&P Russia Capped BMI Index. It generally invests substantially all, but at least 80%, of its total assets in the securities comprising the index or in ADRs or GDRs based on securities comprising the index.  The index is a float-adjusted market capitalization index designed to define and measure the investable universe of publicly-traded companies domiciled in Russia.  The fund is non-diversified.  SPDR S&P Russia ETF is down 46.21% year-to-date.

Country specific ETFs can be complex and risky investments.  They may only be suitable for wealthy, sophisticated retail investors or institutional investors.

Brokerage firms that sell such products are required to perform adequate due diligence on the investments to ensure a reasonable likelihood of success, and to evaluate whether the investments are suitable in light of the client’s age, net worth, investment experience, and investment objectives.  Firms that fail to perform adequate due diligence, or that make unsuitable recommendations, can be held responsible for losses in a FINRA arbitration claim.
