Objective
The Share Class is a share class of a Fund which aims to achieve a return on your investment, through a combination of capital growth and income on the Fund’s assets, which reflects the return of the Dow Jones Asia/Pacific Select Dividend 30 Index, the Fund’s benchmark index. The Share Class, via the Fund, aims to invest so far as possible and practicable in the equity securities (e.g. shares) that make up the benchmark index. The benchmark index measures the performance of the top 30 highest dividend paying companies in the Asia/Pacific region. Companies included in the benchmark index are those that have paid dividends in each of the past three years, have a dividend per share ratio greater than or equal to its three-year average annual dividend per share ratio, have a five year average payout ratio of greater than or equal to two-thirds of the five-year payout ratio of the corresponding Dow Jones country index, or greater than 118%, whichever is greater, a non-negative previous 12 month earnings per share and meet criteria for trading volume. The benchmark index is weighted according to dividend yield with individual companies capped at 10%.
