Overview
The Fund in discussion aims to mirror the performance of a specific Index which is a free float adjusted market-capitalisation weighted index. This Index consists of common stocks from companies based in both developed and emerging markets, with the unique criterion of offering dividends generally higher than the market average. Noteworthily, it excludes real estate trusts from its composition. The Fund's strategy revolves around providing its investors exposure to a diversified portfolio of dividend-yielding stocks, endeavoring to generate income alongside capital growth over time. This approach targets investors seeking a blend of income and investment growth through dividends, which are often seen as a marker of a company's financial health and stability.

This is particularly appealing to income-focused investors looking for regular dividend payouts in addition to potential capital appreciation.
- Exclusion of Real Estate Trusts
In distinguishing itself from other dividend-paying investment vehicles, this Fund explicitly excludes real estate trusts from its portfolio.

- Free Float Adjusted Market-Capitalisation Weighted Index
