Market classification.

A frontier market is too small to be considered an emerging market but is more developed than a least developing country.


Markets (in order of economic development) are often classified as:

Developed;
Emerging;
Frontier;
Least Developing.


Different organisations produce slightly different lists of countries within each of these categories.

Examples of frontier markets in MSCI's classification include - in alphabetical order - Bahrain, Bangladesh, Croatia, Estonia and Iceland.
