The fund will invest in equity securities of foreign companies in frontier markets, or companies whose primary business activities or principal trading markets are in frontier markets.

It will be managed by Thomas Vester, along with two other investment analysts.

BMO said that the LGM frontier markets team has visited 28 frontier countries so far this year, including Botswana, Vietnam and Georgia, in search of attractive investment opportunities.
