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 MSCI UK Screened Select Index, the Fund’s benchmark index (Index).

The Fund is passively managed and aims to invest so far as possible and practicable in equity securities (i.e. shares) that make up the Index.

The Index aims to reflect a sub-set of equity securities within the MSCI UK Index (Parent Index) which remain after the index provider has excluded issuers that are involved in the following business lines / activities: controversial weapons, nuclear weapons, thermal coal (including thermal coal mining and thermal coal power generation), oil sands or Arctic oil, tobacco-related products, gambling-related activities, adult entertainment, predatory lending activities, unconventional oil and gas, and firearms or small arms ammunition for the civilian market. The Index also excludes issuers that are not in compliance with the United Nations Global Compact Principles (UNGC Principles). The Parent Index measures the performance of large and mid-capitalisation stocks of the UK equity market.

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.

The value of equities and equity-related securities can be affected by daily stock market movements. Other influential factors include political, economic news, company earnings and significant corporate events. The benchmark index only excludes companies engaging in certain activities inconsistent with ESG criteria if such activities exceed the thresholds determined by the index provider. Investors should therefore make a personal ethical assessment of the benchmark index’s ESG screening prior to investing in the Fund. Such ESG screening may adversely affect the value of the Fund’s investments compared to a fund without such screening.

The figures shown relate to past performance. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance. Markets could develop very differently in the future. It can help you to assess how the fund has been managed in the past

Performance is shown on a Net Asset Value (NAV) basis, with gross income reinvested where applicable. The return of your investment may increase or decrease as a result of currency fluctuations if your investment is made in a currency other than that used in the past performance calculation.
