The fund is structured to track the performance of an index consisting of U.S. exchange-listed companies in the oil services sector. It commits at least 80% of its total assets to securities that form its benchmark index. This index is composed of common stocks and depositary receipts, encapsulating a range of companies within the oil services domain. This includes not just large companies but also those in the small- and medium-capitalization range, alongside foreign companies that are listed on U.S. exchanges. Characterized as non-diversified, the fund focuses its investments more narrowly than diversified funds, making its performance closely tied to the specific sector it targets.
