The company was established as the Fleming Emerging Markets Investment Trust under the management of Robert Fleming & Co. in 1991. After Robert Fleming & Co. was acquired by Chase Manhattan in April 2000,[5] and Chase Manhattan merged with J.P. Morgan & Co. in December 2000,[6] it was brought under the management of J.P. Morgan & Co. It became the JP Morgan Fleming Emerging Markets Investment Trust in 2002 and then, following JPMorgan's decision to drop the Fleming brand,[7][8] adopted its current name in 2005.[9]
