    About this fund

    Fund objectives

    • The Fund employs a passive management – or indexing – investment approach and seeks to track the performance of the MSCI Japan Index (the “Index”).
    • The Index is comprised of large and mid-sized company stocks in Japan.
    • The Fund attempts to: 1. Track the performance of the Index by investing in all constituent securities of the Index in the same proportion as the Index. Where not practicable to fully replicate, the Fund will use a sampling process. 2. Remain fully invested except in extraordinary market, political or similar conditions.
