    About this fund

    Fund objectives

    • The Fund employs a passive management – or indexing – investment approach and seeks to track the performance of the FTSE Developed ex UK Index (the “Index”).
    • The Index is comprised of large and mid-sized company stocks in global developed markets, excluding the UK.
    • The Fund attempts to: 1. Replicate the Index by investing through physical acquisition in all, or substantially all, of the component securities of the Index, holding each in approximately the same proportion as the weighting of the Index. Where not practicable to fully replicate, the Fund will use the sampling process. 2. Remain fully invested except in extraordinary market, political or similar conditions.
