American Century Emerging Markets Fund (AEDMX) is an open-end mutual fund managed by American Century Investments that seeks capital growth through investments in equity securities of companies located in emerging market countries. The fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in such equities, including securities denominated in foreign currencies and foreign securities represented in U.S. markets via American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) or similar depositary arrangements; it employs a fundamental analysis approach with bottom-up stock picking to outperform the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net Return, USD). AEDMX represents the R6 share class of the broader Emerging Markets Fund family, which includes Investor (TWMIX), A, C, I, R, R5, and Y classes available through various channels such as financial advisors, institutions, and retirement plans. The fund targets accelerating, sustainable growth companies across developing markets worldwide, including regions in Asia, Latin America, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. Launched on July 26, 2013 for the R6 class (with the underlying fund formed September 30, 1997), AEDMX is domiciled in the United States and headquartered with its manager, American Century Investments, in Kansas City, Missouri. Portfolio managers include Sherwin Soo, CFA, and Patricia Ribeiro. In recent developments, the fund delivered strong performance with a year-to-date total return of 32.05% as of December 4, 2025, amid quarterly commentaries highlighting stock selection value-add in volatile emerging markets; meanwhile, American Century Investments announced in September 2024 the closure and liquidation of the related American Century Emerging Markets Bond ETF (AEMB), though AEDMX operations remain active and unchanged.
