Description

The aim is for the investment to reflect the performance of the MSCI Total Return Net Emerging Markets Asia Index (Index) which is designed to reflect the performance of the listed shares of certain companies from Asian emerging markets, as classified by MSCI Inc. (MSCI) and as shown on the website of MSCI (www.msci.com/market-classification). The companies making up the Index are large and medium sized companies based on the combined value of a company’s readily available shares as compared to other companies. A company’s weighting on the Index depends on its relative size. The Index is calculated on a total return net basis which means that all dividends and distributions by the companies are reinvested in the shares after tax. The Index is reviewed and rebalanced at least quarterly. The Fund will invest in transferable securities and enter into financial contracts (derivatives) with one or more swap counterparties relating to the transferable securities and the Index.
