About this fund

Fund objectives

  • The Fund employs a passive management – or indexing – investment approach and seeks to track the performance of the Bloomberg Japan Government Float Adjusted Bond Index (the “Index”).
  • The Index includes investment-grade Japanese yen-denominated treasury and Japanese government related bonds with maturities greater than one year. Investment-grade bonds are generally bonds with a relatively low risk of default.
  • The Fund attempts to: 1. Track the performance of the Index by investing in a portfolio of securities that, insofar as possible and practicable, consists of a representative sample of the component securities of the Index. 2. Remain fully invested except in extraordinary market, political or similar conditions.
