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 Developed Asia Pacific ex Japan Daily Capped Index (the “Index”).
- The Index is comprised of large and mid-sized company stocks in developed markets in Asia and the Pacific Region, excluding Japan.
- The Fund attempts to: 1. Track the performance of the Index by investing in all 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.
Why this fund
- The Fund seeks to provide long-term growth of capital by tracking the performance of the index, a market-capitalisation-weighted index of common stocks of large- and mid-cap companies in developed Asia Pacific region, excluding Japan.
- The Fund employs a passive management or indexing investment approach through the physical acquisition of securities, designed to track the performance of the index, a free-float market-capitalisation-weighted index.
- The Fund will invest in a portfolio of securities that, so far as possible and practicable, consists of the component securities of the index.
- Low expenses minimize net tracking error.
