Overview

Investment Approach

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 the equity market in the United States. The Fund will invest in equity securities (e.g. shares) listed and traded on regulated markets in the United States as well as financial derivative instruments (FDIs) (i.e. investments the prices of which are based on one or more underlying assets) including exchange traded S&P 500 futures contracts. A futures contract is a contract whereby the Fund agrees to buy or sell an underlying asset at a predetermined price in the future. Cash may be held by the Fund for the purpose of providing cover for the exposure created by FDIs. The return of the Fund will be compared with the return on an index which will initially be the S&P 500 Index (with net dividends), the Fund’s benchmark index.

Important Information: Capital at Risk. The value of investments and the income from them can fall as well as rise and are not guaranteed. Investors may not get back the amount originally invested.

All currency hedged share classes of this fund use derivatives to hedge currency risk. The use of derivatives for a share class could pose a potential risk of contagion (also known as spill-over) to other share classes in the fund. The fund’s management company will ensure appropriate procedures are in place to minimise contagion risk to other share class. Using the drop down box directly below the name of the fund, you can view a list of all share classes in the fund – currency hedged share classes are indicated by the word “Hedged” in the name of the share class. In addition, a full list of all currency hedged share classes is available on request from the fund’s management company
