This Fund seeks to track the performance of the Index. In seeking to achieve its investment objective, the Fund aims to provide a return (comprising both income and capital appreciation) which, before application of fees and expenses, is similar to the return of the Index. The Fund employs a “passive management” – or indexing – investment approach, through physical acquisition of securities, designed to track the performance of the Index. 'The Index is a widely recognised benchmark designed to reflect the total universe of US Dollar-denominated publically-traded debt (with maturities greater than one year and which have a minimum issue size of US$500 million) issued by sovereign and quasi-sovereign emerging market issuers. Quasi-sovereign issuers include entities that are government guaranteed and/or sponsored, entities that are more than 50% government owned and local authorities.'
