The described fund operates on a principle known as a "fund of funds" strategy, primarily aimed at tracking the performance of a specific underlying index. This underlying index is composed uniquely of ETFs, specifically all active Select Sector SPDR® ETFs, which are aggregated into an equal weighted portfolio. The goal of the fund is to closely mimic the index's performance by allocating at least 90% of its total assets into the shares of these Underlying Sector ETFs. An important aspect of this fund is its non-diversified nature, meaning it does not spread its investments across a broad spectrum of securities, but rather focuses on the specified ETFs within its strategy.
The fund's investment strategy revolves around the following key product and service:
The cornerstone of the fund's operation is its investment in the shares of Underlying Sector ETFs. These ETFs are part of the Select Sector SPDR® series, which breaks down the broader market into specific sectors. By investing at least 90% of its total assets in these sector-specific ETFs, the fund aims to replicate the performance of its underlying index. This underlying index is a unique combination of all active Select Sector SPDR® ETFs, equally weighted to foster a balanced exposure across different sectors of the economy. The fund's focus on these ETFs underlines its targeted approach towards sector-specific investment, leveraging the benefits of sectoral performance while also engaging in a broader market strategy indirectly through the ETF's diversified holdings within each sector.
