The Exchange Traded Funds (ETF´s) have also been involved on this process. Globalization has brought a wide exposure to international markets creating opportunities in several asset classes with lower costs and minimal investments, thus making ETF´s an extremely attractive product. This paper intends to show how ETF´s works, its creation, redemption and dealing process since such investment funds are still unknow to Brazilian investors. In addition, international portfolios will be built with ETF´s indexed cross-country equity markets, the main objective is check if a Brazilian investor may optimize his portfolio comparing international portfolios built with the brazilian asset market given by the EWZ fund / O fenômeno que estreita e aproxima as relações internacionais nos mais diversos níveis e cuja expressão globalização foi cunhada para nomeá-lo, também alcança os mercados financeiros. Os fundos de índice negociados em bolsa de valores conhecidos como ETF´s (exchange traded funds) encontram-se dentro desse processo. A possibilidade de obter exposições em diversos mercados internacionais e nas mais diversas classes de ativos a custos relativamente baixos e valores mínimos para investimento seja talvez um dos principais atrativos desse novo produto financeiro. Dessa forma, o presente trabalho pretende mostrar a criação e o funcionamento desses fundos, que ainda são pouco conhecidos no Brasil. E, a partir daí, montar carteiras internacionais, com fundos ETF indexados ao mercado de ações de diversos países, compará-las com o ativo de mercado brasileiro em dólares americanos, tentando verificar se o investidor brasileiro conseguiria otimizar a relação risco x retorno de seu portfólio por meio da diversificação com ETF´s
