Fund Description

The Fund will normally invest at least 90% of its net assets (including investment borrowings) in the securities that comprise the Index. The Fund, using an indexing investment approach, attempts to replicate, before fees and expenses, the performance of the Index. The Index is developed, maintained and sponsored by S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC (“SPDJI” or the “Index Provider”). The Index Provider reserves the right to make exceptions when applying the methodology if the need arises. In addition, the Index Provider may revise Index policy covering rules for selecting companies, treatment of dividends, share counts or other matters.The Index is designed to measure the performance of securities of non-U.S. issuers whose primary business focus is Internet-related. According to the Index Provider, the Index selects 40 securities from the S&P Global ex-U.S. Broad Market Index, including the securities of issuers operating in both developed and emerging markets, issued by companies that derive a majority of their revenues from Internet commerce or Internet services. The S&P Global ex-U.S. Broad Market Index is a broad-based equity index that seeks to measure the performance of the global stock market, excluding the United States. As determined by the Index Provider, “Internet Commerce Companies” are those companies that derive the majority of their revenue from providing goods or services through the Internet. “Internet Services Companies” are those companies that derive the majority of their sales/revenue from providing access to the Internet or providing services to people using the Internet. Twenty securities comprising the Index will be those issued by Internet Commerce Companies and twenty securities will be those issued by Internet Services Companies.According to the Index Provider, in addition to the requirement that a company derive at least 50% of its sales/revenue from Internet commerce or Internet services, the Index also excludes the securities of those companies that do not meetthe sizeand liquidity requirements ofthe Index. In addition, to be eligible for inclusion in the Index, for companies domiciled in India, the security must be listed on a securities exchange located in a developed market country.According to the Index Provider, the Index is selected by including the securities of the 20 Internet Commerce Companies with the largest market capitalization and 20 Internet Services Companies with the largest market capitalization that satisfy all eligibility requirements subject to the following buffers: The top 16 companies by rank are selected for each sector. If current components are ranked from 17–24, they are included until the count reaches 20 and if less than 20 companies are reached in step 2, companies are added by rank until 20 are reached. The Index is weighted according to free float (i.e. the amount available for trading) market capitalization. However, the weight for an individual security is capped at 10%. In order to gain exposure to certain Chinese companies that are included in the Fund’s Index but are unavailable to direct investment by foreign investors, the Fund invests significantly in non-Chinese shell companies that have created structures known as variable interest entities (“VIEs”) in order to gain exposure to such Chinese companies. The Fund may also invest in securities with various market capitalizations, restricted securities, depositary receipts, U.S. dollar denominated and non-U.S. dollar denominated securities.The Index is reconstituted and rebalanced quarterly and the Fund will make corresponding changes to its portfolio shortly after the Index changes are made public. The Index’s quarterly rebalance and reconstitution schedule may cause the Fund to experience a higher rate of portfolio turnover. The Fund will be concentrated in an industry or a group of industries to the extent that the Index is so concentrated. As of December 31, 2023, the Fund had significant investments in communication services companies, consumer discretionary companies, Chinese issuers and Asian issuers, although this may change from time to time.The Fund's investments will change as the Index changes and, as a result, the Fund may have significant investments in jurisdictions or investment sectors that it may not have had as of December 31, 2023. To the extent the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in a given jurisdiction or investment sector, the Fund may be exposed to the risks associated with that jurisdiction or investment sector.The Fund is classified as “non-diversified” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).
