Description

The fund is passively managed to provide exposure to the broad Indian equity market by holding a basket of depository receipts (ADRs and GDRs). To be eligible for inclusion, companies should be listed on NYSE, Nasdaq, or LSE and must meet investability and liquidity requirements, including a minimum market capitalization of $100 million. The index weights the resulting portfolio of Indian depositary receipts by market-cap, with single issuer weights capped at 15%. The aggregate weight of issuers with weights above 4.5% is capped at 45% if there are at least 25 companies in the portfolio. The index is rebalanced on a quarterly basis.
