    Tough call but thankfully not one I have to make :-) If I did then I would go for -

    BlackRock Emerging Markets Equity Tracker Class A
    BlackRock North American Equity Tracker Class A

    I would choose the EM fund as I would expect it to also track frontier markets as they become more prominent, perhaps switching out of or reducing exposure to some of the emerging mkts.

    I would choose the NA fund as although Europe is awful but should recover long term, I just think the NA region is so big that any global recovery should include improvement to that region also.

    I'd not seen this beforehand but I would go for exactly the same ones. Emerging for exposure to higher growth areas, US because other developed markets seem to track it so that would give similar cover to UK or Europe
    Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.
