The declared annual cost (TER) is 0.45%, plus 0.05% in transaction costs estimated by the issuer in the KID. Replication is direct physical replication; income is distributed to investors.

The fund’s objective — in the issuer’s words
The Fund is a passively managed index-based UCITS. The Fund's objective is to replicate, both upwards and downwards, the performance of the TOPIX® Gross Total Return Index (gross dividends reinvested) (the "Benchmark"), denominated in Japanese yen (JPY) and representative of all Japanese shares listed in the first section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange, while minimising the tracking error between the performance of the Fund and that of the Benchmark. The expected level of the Tracking Error under normal market conditions is indicated in the Fund prospectus. The Japan Exchange Group website (www.jpx.co.jp/english/) contains more detailed information about the Japan Exchange Group indices. The Fund aims to achieve its objective through direct replication, namely by investing primarily in the components of the Benchmark. In order to optimise Benchmark replication, the Fund may use a sampling technique, as well as guaranteed temporary sales of securities. Any use of these techniques is indicated on the website amundietf.com. The updated composition of the portfolio of securities held by the Fund is mentioned on the website amundietf.com. In addition, the indicative net asset value appears on the Fund's Reuters and Bloomberg pages and may also be mentioned on the Fund's stock exchange websites.

From month-end NAVs, over the fund’s full history, on the series shown in the chart (dividends reinvested where declared). Deeper colour = larger move.
Issuer-declared series with dividends reinvested: the total performance, comparable with accumulating funds. Switch it off to see the price (NAV) alone, which drops at every dividend payment.
Source: Amundi. Issuer-declared historical series; inflation: Eurostat and national statistical institutes, latest available July 2026 — for later days the index stays at the last published value (institutes publish with a few weeks’ lag). The «adjusted for inflation» view expresses value in today’s purchasing power for the selected country; volatility always stays nominal, as elsewhere on the site (deflating it would add artificial swings caused by the monthly cadence of the price index). Past performance is not indicative of future results: these are facts, not a recommendation.
Tracking difference — fund vs index
How much the fund returned above (+) or below (−) its index, year by year. It measures the actual deviation: the combined effect of costs (TER and transaction), securities-lending revenue and replication optimisations — which is why it can beat the TER. Tracking difference was positive in 0 of the last 10 calendar years: a past observation, not an indication of future outperformance.

Computed from the daily NAV series, always in nominal terms. Sharpe and Sortino use the ECB main refinancing rate averaged over the period (last year: 2.20%), weighted by days in force, as the risk-free rate. Same formulas as our public methodology: sample standard deviation annualised over 252 days; Sortino with downside deviation. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Figures in EUR — series converted day by day at ECB reference rates; the table follows the currency selected in the chart.
Per-share dividends as declared by the issuer, in JPY, since the first payment (12 Dec 2012). Past dividends are not indicative of future ones. An «estimated» payment date is computed by Rebalix (ex-date + 2-3 business days, as this issuer has paid in the past) because the issuer does not publish it: it may differ by a day.
