About this fund
Fund objectives
- The Fund employs a passive management – or indexing – investment approach, through physical acquisition of securities, and seeks to track the performance of the FTSE Emerging Index (the “Index”).
- The Index is comprised of large and mid-sized company stocks in emerging markets.
- The Fund attempts to: 1. Track the performance of the Index by investing through physical acquisition in all, or substantially all, of the constituent securities of the Index in the same proportion as the Index. Where not practicable to fully replicate, the Fund will use a sampling process. 2. Remain fully invested except in extraordinary market, political or similar conditions where the Fund may temporarily depart from this investment policy to avoid losses.
Why this fund
- The Fund seeks to track the performance of the index, a market-capitalisation-weighted index of large- and mid-cap companies in multiple emerging markets in Europe, Asia, Africa, Latin America and the Middle East.
- The Fund employs a passive management or indexing investment approach, through physical acquisition of securities, designed to track the performance index.
- The Fund will invest in a portfolio of equity securities that, so far as possible and practicable, consists of the component securities of the index.
