The Share Class is a share class of a Fund which 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 Markit iBoxx USD Liquid High Yield 0-5 Capped Index, the Fund"s benchmark index (Index). The Share Class, via the Fund is passively managed, and aims to invest so far as possible and practicable in the fixed income (FI) securities (such as bonds) that make up the Index, and comply with its credit rating requirements. The FI securities will, at the time of inclusion in the Index, have a Markit iBoxx Rating of sub-investment grade (i.e. meet a specified level of creditworthiness). Ratings from Fitch, Moody"s and Standard & Poor"s Ratings Services are considered for calculation of the Markit iBoxx Rating. If the credit ratings of the FI securities are upgraded to investment grade or such become in default, the Fund may continue to hold these until they cease to form part of the Index and it is practicable to sell the position. The Fund uses optimising techniques to achieve a similar return to its Index. These may include the strategic selection of certain securities that make up the Index or other FI securities which provide similar performance to certain constituent securities. These may also include the use of financial derivative instruments (FDIs) (i.e. investments the prices of which are based on one or more underlying assets). FDIs may be used for direct investment purposes. The Fund may also engage in short-term secured lending of its investments to certain eligible third parties to generate additional income to off-set the costs of the Fund.
