Fund Facts

Asset Class Multi-asset class
Geographic Focus International
Market Index The market index for the fund is a composite index. It is made up of the indices used to measure the performance of the assets that the fund invests in. The market index return for the fund is calculated using the weighted average annual return of the market indices used to measure the performance of the assets that the fund invests in. This is calculated by multiplying the index return for each asset class by the target asset allocation weights for each asset class

  • are involved in activities relating to illegal weapons (cluster munitions, anti-personnel mines and nuclear explosive devices); or
  • own proved or probable reserves in coal, oil, or gas, and derive at least 15% of their revenue from exploration and extraction of coal, oil or gas.
