In seeking to achieve its investment objective, the Fund aims to provide a return which, before the application of fees and expenses, is similar to the return of the Index.
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 Europe Small Cap Index (the “Index”).
The Fund will invest in a portfolio of equity securities of small-capitalisation companies located in European developed markets. The Index is derived from the broader FTSE Global Equity Index Series (GEIS), which covers around 98% of the world’s investable market capitalisation.
The Fund attempts to: 1. Track the performance of the Index by fully replicating the Index, so that the Fund invests in all, or substantially all, of the constituents of the Index, making the weight of such investments approximate to those of the Index, to the extent practicable. 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.
