    Four principles drive our investment process:

    1. Investors can take advantage of market inefficiencies through a disciplined application of a systematic, analytical investment process.

    2.The Fund uses more than one strategy designed to take advantage of market inefficiencies to help produce more consistent, investment performance over the long term. We rank companies in the index using factors such as quality, valuation and investor sentiment.

    3. Risk control is an integral part of our investment process. The Fund maintains overall risk, style, and size characteristics similar to those of the benchmark.

    4. Our investment process is based on economic and financial analysis which is continuously updated to adapt over time.

    The Fund will exclude companies, subject to materiality thresholds identified by MSCI, with revenue from or business activities involving: tobacco; cluster bombs; landmines; chemical and biological weapons; and depleted uranium weapons.

    Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance. Performance returns for periods of less than one year are not annualised. The performance figures contained herein reflect Total Returns and are provided on a net and gross of fees basis. Performance figures are calculated using end-of-month exit prices except for the 'Since Inception' return which is calculated using NAV prices for the pre 1 January 2010 period, and end-of-month exit prices thereafter, assume the reinvestment of distributions and make no allowance for tax. Net performance figures are after management and transaction costs. Gross performance figures are before management costs but after transaction costs. Index returns reflect capital gains and losses, income, and the reinvestment of dividends. Index returns are unmanaged and do not reflect the deduction of any fees or expenses. The calculation method for the value added returns may show rounding differences.
