The Fund employs a passive management approach, through physical acquisition of securities, and seeks to track the performance of the Bloomberg Global Aggregate Corporate – United States Dollar Index. The Fund invests in a representative sample of bonds included in the Index in order to closely match the Index’s capital and income return. The Index measures the performance of a broad spread of US dollar-denominated bonds paying a fixed rate of interest which are issued by companies. Bonds in the Index have maturities of between one and three years and are generally investment grade. To a lesser extent, the Fund may invest in bonds outside the Index where the risk and return characteristics closely resemble those of the Index. The Fund’s base currency is USD, and income is reinvested in the accumulating share class.
