The fund’s objective — in the issuer’s words

Investment Objective To provide exposure to large and mid-capitalisation stocks in China which are aligned to the transition to a low carbon economy.

Keep reading the KID section ▾

Investment PolicyThe Fund invests in equities of Chinese companies of medium and large market capitalisation that transition to a lower carbon economy or are less exposed to climate transition risks. These investments are included in the benchmark. The benchmark is based on the MSCI China Index, its parent index, and includes large and mid-capitalisation Chinese equity securities and is constructed to follow the EU Paris-aligned Benchmark (EU PAB) Regulations (Regulation (EU) 2019/2089) (the “PAB Regulations”). The benchmark aims to overweight companies which are exposed to climate transition opportunities and underweight those companies which are exposed to climate transition risks. The Index seeks to reduce exposure to high carbon emitters. Derivatives and techniques The Fund may use derivatives for hedging and efficient portfolio management. Strategy The investment manager seeks to minimise the difference between the Fund’s performance and that of the benchmark (tracking error), regardless of whether the benchmark level rises or falls. SFDR category Article 8 (promotes environmental and/or social characteristics under EU regulations). The Index follows the PAB Regulations which are designed to help investors shift towards a low-carbon economy and align investments to the Paris Climate Agreement. The Index tracks the performance of eligible Chinese equity securities, selected and weighted to be collectively compatible with a 1.5ºC global warming climate scenario and to meet several other climatethemed objectives. The Index also applies exclusions based on companies’ involvement in specific business activities.

Drawdown — distance from previous peak

This isn’t the return: it shows how far the fund is below its previous peak. 0% = you’re at the peak; below zero = how much you’re down and haven’t recovered yet.

Source: Franklin Templeton. 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 3 calendar years: a past observation, not an indication of future outperformance.

Windows longer than the available price history cannot be computed and are not shown: they will appear on their own as time passes. 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: 2.21%), 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.
