    About this fund

    Fund objectives

    • The Fund employs a passive management – or indexing – investment approach, through physical acquisition of securities, and seeks to track the performance of the FTSE Developed Choice Index (the “Index”).
    • The Index is a market-capitalisation-weighted index of common stock of large and mid-sized companies in developed countries.
    • Through the screening out of stocks of companies from its portfolio based on the potentially detrimental impact of the issuer's conduct or products on society, the Fund promotes certain social characteristics relating to social norms and standards.
    • The Fund attempts to: 1. Match the risk factor exposures of the Index by investing in a representative sample of the securities that make up the Index, excluding Index constituents that are issued by companies which (as determined by the Index provider) are involved in certain business activities related to (1) chemical and biological weapons, (2) cluster munitions, (3) anti-personnel landmines, (4) nuclear weapons, and/or (5) manufacture and distribution of tobacco products. The screening process also seeks to exclude Index constituents that are issued by companies based on certain controversial conduct, which is achieved by excluding companies that have been deemed ‘Non-Compliant’ in relation to the United Nations Global Compact Principles regarding labour, human rights, environmental, and anti-corruption standards through third party data which is utilised by the Index provider. 2. Remain fully invested except in extraordinary market, political or similar conditions where the Fund may temporarily depart from this investment policy to avoid losses.
    • Company product and conduct involvement is monitored on a yearly basis by the Index provider and as new data is made available to the Index provider.
    • For the full investment strategy please review the prospectus.
