Episode Description

We welcome Karim Rahemtulla, Founder and Editor of The Smart Cap Alert, and the Director of Emerging Markets/Options for Wall Street Daily, to discuss his latest book: Where in the World Should I Invest?: An Insider's Guide to Making Money Around the Globe (Wiley; April 2012), which outlines the perils, pitfalls, and rewards of investing in "low float" markets. Emerging market investing is not for the faint of heart. Countries that have frequent changes in leadership, high rates of poverty, illiteracy, and high rates of crime are hardly the types of markets that engender confidence. However, places like China, South Africa, Brazil, and India are growing at four to five times the rate of developed markets like the United States or Europe. Emerging markets are a ride investors cannot afford to miss, but they are often missing key opportunities because they either have incorrect information about a country where they might invest, or simply don't know what questions to ask.
