Lonsec gave a highly recommended rating to the Templeton Emerging Markets Fund, TAAM New Asia Fund, Aberdeen Emerging Opportunities Fund and T Rowe Price Asia Ex-Japan Equity Fund.
Six new funds were reviewed and included in Lonsec's recommended list this year, Lonsec senior investment analyst Steve Sweeney said.
"Emerging markets continue to grow in size, thereby supporting continued product development and investment choice, as is evident in Lonsec's research coverage in this area, which has increased from seven funds in 2007 to 20 funds today," Sweeney said.
"The addition of new funds reflects a combination of continued product development for retail investors in this category and a desire to increase product choice in a growth sector for advisers."
