The Fund aims to maximise the total return, mainly through capital growth. The Fund can invest in any economic sector in emerging markets worldwide, either directly or indirectly. Investment will be mainly in shares of companies. We will decide what constitutes an emerging market. Investments will be selected following application of business activity-based exclusions and norms-based evaluation. Investments in companies that derive annual revenues above a particular level from tobacco, armaments or thermal coal extraction and production are not permitted. The Fund will comply with the Investment Managers policy on assessing breaches of the United Nations Global Compact Principles for Business. The Fund is actively managed and no index is used for the purposes of determining or constraining the composition of the Fund's portfolio. The Fund's performance (after deduction of costs) is measured against the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. The Fund seeks to materially outperform the index. The return of the Fund is dependent on the performance of the underlying assets.
