Products and Services

• Investment in Cyber Security Stocks and Depositary Receipts

  This product targets the cyber security sector, aiming to provide investors with exposure to companies engaged in the development and provision of security technologies and services. By investing at least 90% of its net assets in the securities that make up the cyber security index, the fund seeks to mirror the performance of companies that are at the forefront of combating cyber threats and vulnerabilities. The inclusion of depositary receipts enables access to foreign companies in the cyber security realm, enhancing the fund's global reach.

• Non-Diversified Fund Structure

  The fund's non-diversified nature means that it can invest a larger portion of its assets in a narrower range of securities compared to diversified funds. This approach allows for potentially higher gains from the specific sector it targets but also comes with higher risk due to the lack of diversification. The fund's strategy is tailored for investors who are specifically interested in the cyber security sector and are willing to accept the associated risk levels for the chance of substantial rewards.
