Objective
The Fund 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 MSCI World 100% Hedged to GBP Index Net, the Fund’s benchmark index (Index). The Index provides a return on the MSCI World Total Return Index which measures the performance of large and mid capitalisation equity securities in developed countries worldwide. The Index also uses one month foreign exchange (FX) forward contracts to hedge each non-Sterling currency in the Index back to Sterling in accordance with the MSCI Hedged Indices methodology. Hedging reduces the effect of fluctuations in the exchange rates between the currencies of the equity securities that make up the Index and Sterling, the base currency of the Fund. The Fund aims to invest in equity securities (e.g. shares) that, so far as possible and practicable, make up the MSCI World Total Return Index, as well as FX forward contracts that, so far as possible and practicable, track the hedging methodology of the Index.
