Stocks and Shares ISAObjective
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 Markit iBoxx USD Liquid High Yield 0-5 Capped Index, the Fund’s benchmark index (Index). The Share Class, via the Fund, aims to invest so far as possible and practicable in the fixed income (FI) securities (such as bonds) that make up the Index, and comply with its credit rating requirements. The FI securities will, at the time of inclusion in the Index, have a Markit iBoxx Rating of sub-investment grade (i.e. meet a specified level of creditworthiness). Ratings from Fitch, Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services are considered for calculation of the Markit iBoxx Rating. If the credit ratings of the FI securities are upgraded to investment grade or such become in default, the Fund may continue to hold these until they cease to form part of the Index and it is practicable to sell the position. The Index measures the performance of US Dollar denominated short duration high yield corporate FI securities, which pay income according to a fixed rate of interest and mature between 0 and 5 years. In addition to the credit rating requirements, only FI securities with $350 million minimum face value per FI security are included in the Index, provided that they are trading at a minimum price in accordance with the index provider's liquidity requirements. The Index uses a market-value weighted methodology with a cap on each issuer of 3% and a 10% cap on 144A FI securities without registration rights or with a registration period greater than one year. These may include the strategic selection of certain securities that make up the Index or other FI securities which provide similar performance to certain constituent securities.
