The Fund aims to provide a return (gross of charges) on your investment (generated through an increase in the value of the assets held by the Fund) by tracking closely the performance of the Morningstar Japan ESG Enhanced Index (the “Benchmark Index”). The Fund invests in equity securities (e.g. shares) of companies that make up the Benchmark Index. The Benchmark Index aims to reflect the performance of a sub-set of equity securities within the Morningstar Japan Target Market Exposure Index (the "Parent Index") which remain after the index provider has excluded securities using pre-defined ESG screens and weighted securities using an optimisation process, as determined by the index provider (as further described in the Fund’s prospectus).
