Overview
The fund is designed to provide investors with exposure to Indonesian companies, acting as a gateway to invest in one of Southeast Asia's largest and growing economies. It strategically targets securities that form part of its benchmark index, which consists of companies either incorporated in Indonesia or with significant operations and revenues derived from the country. This investment approach aims to capture the dynamics of Indonesia's economy, focusing on various sectors and including the potential high growth from small- and medium-sized enterprises. Importantly, the fund is characterized by its commitment to invest at least 80% of its total assets in the securities that make up its benchmark index, ensuring a concentrated exposure to the Indonesian market. However, it's noted to be non-diversified, meaning it may focus investments in fewer individual holdings than diversified funds, potentially increasing risk and volatility.
Products and Services
- Investment in Indonesian Securities:
The core offering involves investing a significant portion of the fund's assets into securities that are listed on the fund's benchmark index. These securities are from companies recognized as Indonesian, either by incorporation or through the substantial portion of their business operations and revenues being located within Indonesia. This includes a wide array of sectors, thus offering diversified exposure within the Indonesian market itself.
- Focus on Small- and Medium-Capitalization Companies:
In addition to large corporations, the fund uniquely positions itself by also investing in small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) within Indonesia. This strategy not only supports the growth and development of SMEs but also allows investors to tap into the potential high returns associated with these emerging companies. It highlights the fund's commitment to capturing the full spectrum of the Indonesian corporate landscape.
