The Index measures the performance of US Dollar denominated short duration investment grade corporate FI securities which pay income according to a fixed rate of interest maturing between 0 and 5 years and are issued by large companies with at least $1 billion in aggregate outstanding issuance and $500 million face value per FI security. The FI securities will, at the time of inclusion in the Index, have an average rating of investment grade (i.e. meet a specified level of creditworthiness) by Fitch, Moody's and Standard & Poor's Ratings Services. The Index uses a market-value weighted methodology with a cap on each issuer of 3%. The Fund uses optimising techniques to achieve a similar return to its Index. These may include the strategic selection of certain securities that make up the Index or other FI securities which provide similar performance to certain constituent securities. These may also include the use of financial derivative instruments (FDIs) (i.e. investments the prices of which are based on one or more underlying assets). FDIs may be used for direct investment purposes.
