The Chile Fund, traded on the NY stock exchange I believe is mostly made up of government bonds.

The thing that bugs my about investments of those sorts in Chile is the lack of transparency. It is too much of a big institution insider's game. Hopefully they really do put together reforms to let average investors in on them.


On top of that costs either for a mutzual fund or as a mandate is just very high for something which is a simple long only investment strategy. Most of the funds are just too small (I guess) to get sufficient economics of scale.

On a separate note, has anybody made any experience with forexchile.cl or clp.cl. I'm currently hedging my CLP exposure through forwards (OTC) which can be a headache because of liquidity and minimum size issues.
