The fund is passively managed. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE: The aim is for your investment to track the performance, before fees and expenses, of the S&P 500 Equal Weight Index (index) which is designed to measure the performance of the companies in the S&P 500 Index with each company in the index being allocated a fixed weight of 0.20%. DESCRIPTION OF INDEX: The index contains shares of large public companies traded on certain eligible US exchanges. The shares comprising the S&P 500 Index are weighted according to the total market value of their outstanding shares (capitalisation weighted). INDEX REBALANCING, CALCULATION AND ADMINISTRATION: The index is calculated on a total return net basis which means that all dividends and distributions by the companies are reinvested in the shares after tax. The index is reviewed and rebalanced on a quarterly basis, to coincide with the readjustments of the S&P 500 Index, and may also be rebalanced at other times in order to reflect corporate activity such as mergers and acquisitions. INVESTMENT POLICY: To achieve the aim, the fund will invest in transferable securities and enter into financial contracts (derivatives) with one or more counterparties relating to the transferable securities and the net or gross total return version of the index (swap index), in order to obtain the return on the swap index. The gross total return version of the index calculates the performance of the stocks assuming that all dividends and distributions are reinvested on a gross basis. The swap index shall be selected in the absolute discretion of the Investment Manager.
