Products and Services
- Securities Investment in Copper Mining
- American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs)
This product focuses on investing in securities of companies that are significantly involved in the copper mining industry. By channeling at least 80% of its total assets into the securities held in the underlying index, the fund aims to mirror the performance of these companies. This strategy provides investors an opportunity to participate in the growth and earnings potential of the copper mining sector.
Alongside direct investments in securities, the fund invests in ADRs and GDRs based on the securities of the global copper mining companies. ADRs and GDRs offer a way for the fund to gain exposure to foreign markets with the added convenience of trading in U.S. dollars and other major currencies. This approach helps mitigate some of the risks associated with direct investments in foreign securities, such as currency risk and political risk, while still allowing investors to benefit from the performance of global copper mining companies.
