This investment vehicle offers comprehensive exposure to the global developed equity market by tracking an Investable Market Index (IMI). The strategy is designed to capture the performance of companies across all market capitalisation segments—large, mid, and small—from 23 developed countries. By including small-cap stocks, the fund provides a more complete representation of the global equity landscape compared to standard indices that often focus only on larger companies. This all-encompassing approach means the fund holds thousands of individual securities, making it a highly diversified, single-product solution for investors seeking a core building block for a long-term portfolio.
Investing in such a broad mandate helps to mitigate concentration risk and smooth out volatility that might arise from being overly exposed to a specific country, sector, or company size. The portfolio's breadth allows investors to participate in the long-term growth potential of the global economy, benefiting from the innovation and expansion of a vast array of businesses worldwide. The accumulating share class structure is particularly beneficial for long-term growth-oriented investors, as all income generated is automatically reinvested to harness the power of compounding. Given its extensive diversification, this fund is well-suited as a foundational holding in a global equity allocation.
