The S&P 500 Capped 35/20 Financials Sector Index-NR (the “Index”) is derived from the S&P 500 index which includes approximately 500 of the largest companies on the US stock market. The Fund may concentrate its investments in a particular industry or group of industries where the Index is similarly concentrated. Derivatives and techniques The Fund may use derivatives for hedging and efficient portfolio management.
