Description

The Sub-Fund is an index-tracking UCITS passively managed. The Reference Currency of the Sub-Fund is the Japan Yen (JPY). The investment objective of (the “Sub-Fund”) is to track both the upward and the downward evolution of MSCI Japan Net Total Return Index (the “Index”) denominated in JPY and representative of large-cap and mid-cap companies listed in Japan, while minimizing the volatility of the difference between the return of the Sub-Fund and the return of the Index (the “Tracking Error”). For daily hedged share classes mentioned in APPENDIX C - SUMMARY OF SHARES AND FEES, the Sub-Fund will also use a daily currency-hedge strategy, in order to minimize the impact of the evolution of each respective share class currency against currencies of each Index component. The anticipated level of the tracking error under normal market conditions is expected to be up to 1.00%.
