FOR HIGHLIGHTS CONSIDERATION:

"Trading the Globe" will air at 7:30pm ET on Tuesday, August 17th and Thursday, September 23rd on CNBC. On those dates, "The Kudlow Report" will air from 7pm-7:30pm ET.

As rising debt and slowing demand hobble the Western world, traders are hunting for the globe’s next growth engine. Enter emerging markets. The burgeoning economies of China, Latin America, Southeast Asia, and Africa have all the components that used to make the American economy so attractive: an expanding middle class, a growing population, and a burgeoning culture of entrepreneurship.

Still, American investors view emerging markets with equal doses of greed and fear: desperate for the gains only foreign economies can offer, but afraid of the unknown. "Trading the Globe" will demystify these countries and companies, separate fact from fiction, and bring the reality of emerging market investing into the light.

In "Trading the Globe," three prominent emerging markets traders will gather for a fast-paced, half-hour roundtable discussion – led by EM hedge fund manager Tim Seymour – that will highlight the big market moves from every corner of the globe and explain to viewers the ways to tap this unstoppable growth story. This is the future of growth, the future of investing, and the future of money.
