International ETFS: Building An Ideal Allocation

In my experience as an investment advisor, most portfolios that utilize exchange-traded funds have an embedded “home country” bias.  This means that the majority of the underlying assets are focused in U.S.-centric stocks and bonds rather than foreign markets.

This trend has been further exacerbated in recent years by the outperformance of U.S. large cap stocks versus their international peers.  Many ETF investors have grown weary of the persistent lagging returns and heightened volatility of both developed and emerging markets.  As a result, they have underweighted or altogether eliminated these assets from their portfolios.
