Chartwell has launched a suite of investor services focused on the theme of
Asian & emerging market growth; these products will help a variety of
investors tap into the economic growth of the Asia & emerging markets using
both exchange-traded funds and individual stock picks

BOULDER, Colo., May 11 /PRNewswire/ -- Chartwell now offers a suite of
services to help a variety of investors tap into Asian & emerging market
growth. Markets such as China and India, Singapore and Australia, and Chile
and Turkey all offer investors excellent growth prospects if approached with a
smart strategy mindful of the risks.

ChartwellETF.com is a weekly advisory service with an Asian tilt for the
long-term, self-directed global investor. The Asia & Emerging Market Alpha
Trader is for high-net-worth and more active investors. Chartwell Partners
also offers Asia & emerging market separate account management using a blend
of exchange-traded funds and individual stock picks.

There are four major distinctions between these new services and existing
offerings. First, Chartwell is indifferent to the geography of the companies
it highlights or invests in. Rather, it focuses in on the company's source of
revenue and profits and looks for those targeting Asian & emerging markets.
Second, Chartwell seeks absolute returns rather than the usual mirroring of
the MSCI Emerging Market index.

Third, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are a core investment tool and provide
much-needed diversification and transparency. Individual stock picks allow
more precision and flexibility. And fourth, Chartwell opens its universe
beyond only emerging market countries and brings into play more developed
countries such as Singapore, Japan and Australia that are at the heart of
Asian growth. In addition, Chartwell pays close attention to risk management,
which plays a critical role in successful investing in Asia & emerging
markets.

"Focusing on the theme of Asian & emerging market growth while preserving
flexibility in investment tools with attention to risk management is a winning
formula for investors," according to Chartwell Managing Partner Carl Delfeld.
