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 S&P 500 EUR Hedged, the Fund’s benchmark index (Index). The Index provides a return on the S&P 500 which measures the performance of the large-cap sector (i.e. leading companies with large market capitalisations) of the United States market. Market capitalisation is the share price multiplied by the number of shares issued. Companies are included in the Index based on a free float market capitalisation weighted basis. Free float means that only shares available to international investors, rather than all of a company’s issued shares, are used to calculate the Index. The Index also uses one month foreign exchange (FX) forward contracts to hedge each non-Euro currency in the Index back to Euro in accordance with the S&P Hedged Indices methodology. Hedging reduces the effect of fluctuations in the exchange rates between the currencies of the equity securities (e.g. shares) that make up the Index and Euro, 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 S&P 500, as well as FX forward contracts that, so far as possible and practicable, track the hedging methodology of the Index.
