Every advisor will want you to have sufficient international diversification.  Investing domestically in not diversification – the United States represents only about one-third of the world economy.  It is because of this fact, that advisor want their clients to invest in emerging markets.

Emerging markets tend to have younger populations than developed countries and because of this, they grow faster and usually have a better valuation than countries like the USA, the UK, Australia or Canada.

It is best to get a piece of this action by investing through ETFs (exchanged traded funds) or MFs (mutual funds).  Emerging market funds will invest in developing regions of the world, mainly Latin America or Eastern Europe.  Right now China and India are considered emerging markets and have shown a growth much faster than any other developed economies.
