- Touchstone Sands Capital Emerging Markets Growth Fund Class Y (TSEMX) is an actively managed mutual fund that seeks long-term capital appreciation primarily through equity investments in companies located in emerging market countries and, opportunistically, in frontier markets. The fund, sub-advised by Sands Capital Management, LLC since inception, employs a concentrated, conviction-weighted portfolio typically comprising 30 to 50 high-quality growth stocks selected for sustainable above-average earnings growth, leadership positions in promising business spaces, significant competitive advantages, clear missions, financial strength, and rational valuations; key sectors include financials, consumer discretionary, information technology, and consumer staples, with top holdings such as Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd., Bajaj Finance Ltd., MercadoLibre Inc., Sea Ltd., and HDFC Bank Ltd. Geographic exposures emphasize emerging Asia (particularly India, China, Taiwan, Indonesia), Latin America (Brazil, Argentina), and selective developed markets like the Netherlands and the United States, while portfolio composition remains predominantly equities (approximately 97%) with minimal cash equivalents. Launched on May 9, 2014, with Class Y shares, the fund is advised by Touchstone Advisors Inc., a member of Western & Southern Financial Group, and is domiciled in the United States with total net assets exceeding $1.9 billion across share classes including A (TSMGX), C (TEGCX), Institutional (TSEGX), and R6 (TSRMX). In recent developments, Touchstone Investments, in partnership with Sands Capital, launched the Touchstone Sands Capital Emerging Markets ex-China Growth ETF (TEMX) in February 2025, an actively managed ETF excluding China and Hong Kong to provide diversified exposure across other developing markets with a focused portfolio of 25 to 45 growth companies, marking the firm's second ETF collaboration with Sands following the US Select Growth ETF (TSEL). Portfolio managers Brian A. Christiansen (since 2014), Teeja Boye (since 2022), and Neil Kansari continue to oversee investments, with the fund maintaining high active share (89%) relative to the MSCI Emerging Markets Index benchmark and incorporating relevant ESG factors alongside fundamental analysis. The expense limitation agreement caps annual operating expenses at 1.30% for Class Y shares through at least July 2024, supporting accessibility for institutional and qualified investors.
