The investment objective of the Fund is to track the U.S. equity market performance of large-cap stocks. The Fund seeks to track the performance of the S&P 500 Index as closely as possible. The Index measures the performance of the 500 largest stocks in the U.S. equity market. The Fund is passively managed and primarily invests in the securities included in the Index, seeking to hold all Index securities with approximately the same weightings as the Index. The Fund uses a replication strategy, although in limited circumstances it may purchase securities that are not included in the Index. The Fund may also use financial derivative instruments to manage the portfolio efficiently.

The investment objective of the Fund is to generate income and capital growth with lower volatility than Developed Market stocks. The Fund is actively managed and, in normal market conditions, invests at least 80% of its total assets in stocks and stock-related instruments, including call options, futures and swaps, of large- and mid-capitalisation stocks in Developed Markets. The Fund uses quantitative models to select stocks systematically and may sell call options and buy futures on Developed Market large- and mid-capitalisation indices to generate income. The Fund follows the Fund’s ESG Policy and may use financial derivative instruments to achieve its investment objective, reduce risk, reduce investment costs and generate additional income. The investment manager may consider the MSCI World Index when constructing the portfolio and for risk management purposes, but is not bound by the components or weightings of the Index. The Fund may invest in securities outside the Index and its holdings are expected to deviate materially from the Index. Distributions are paid monthly.
