The Fund aims to provide a return on your investment (generated through an increase in the value of the assets held by the Fund) by tracking closely the performance of the FTSE World Asia-Pacific ex-Japan Index, the Fund’s benchmark index. The Fund invests in equity securities (e.g. shares) of companies that make up the benchmark index. The benchmark index measures the performance of equity securities of leading companies listed in the Asia Pacific region excluding Japan. The benchmark index is a free float-adjusted market capitalisation weighted index.
