About this fund
Fund objectives
- The Fund employs a passive management – or indexing – investment approach, through physical acquisition of securities, and seeks to track the performance of the Bloomberg Global Aggregate Float Adjusted and Scaled Index (the “Index”).
- The Fund invests in a representative sample of bonds included in the Index in order to closely match the Index’s capital and income return.
- The Index includes investment-grade and government bonds from around the world with maturities greater than one year.
- To a lesser extent the Fund may invest in similar types of bonds outside the Index.
Why this fund
- This Fund seeks to track the performance of the Index.
- In seeking to achieve its investment objective, the Fund aims to provide a return (comprising both income and capital appreciation) which, before application of fees and expenses, is similar to the return of the Index.
- The Fund employs a “passive management” - or indexing - investment approach, through physical acquisition of securities, designed to track the performance of the Index.
- In tracking the performance of the Index, the Fund will invest in a portfolio of fixed-rate dollar-denominated corporate bonds (including subordinated and callable bonds) that so far as possible and practicable consist of a representative sample of the component securities of the Index.

Fund codes
Please see the fund’s fact sheet and prospectus for important information about risk’s specific to the fund. All investing is subject to risk, which may result in loss of principal. Investments in bond funds are subject to the risk that an issuer will fail to make payments on time, and that bond prices will decline because of rising interest rates or negative perceptions of an issuer's ability to make payments. High-yield bonds generally have medium-and lower-range credit-quality ratings and are therefore subject to a higher level of credit risk than bonds with higher credit-quality ratings. Bonds of companies based in emerging markets are subject to national and regional political and economic risks and to the risk of currency fluctuations. These risks are especially high in emerging markets.
