Fund Objective: The Fund aims to deliver an income and to increase the value of your investment over a period of 5 years or more. The Fund will invest at least 70% in equities (and their related securities) of companies domiciled, incorporated or having significant business in the Asia Pacific (excluding Japan) region and those which are listed in the region and aims to hold a concentrated portfolio of 30-50 securities. The Investment Manager will choose investments which it believes offer attractive dividend yields in addition to capital growth. It is not restricted in terms of size, industry or geographical split which could include investment in countries considered as emerging markets as determined by the Investment Manager at its sole discretion. The Fund is actively managed without reference to a benchmark. The Fund may also invest in other transferable securities, collective investment schemes, money market instruments, cash and deposits and is also able to use derivatives for efficient portfolio management. The Variable Share Class (WVMF) measures its performance relative to the index for the purposes of the Investment Management Charge calculation. The performance index does not influence investment decisions materially. The Fund's performance can be compared to the MSCI All Country Asia Pacific ex Japan High Dividend Yield (Net Total Return) Index as the index constituents are representative of the type of companies the Fund invests in. Many funds sold in the UK are grouped into sectors by the Investment Association (the trade body that represents UK Investment Managers), to facilitate comparison between funds with broadly similar characteristics. This Fund is classified in the IA Asia Pacific excluding Japan sector. Performance data on funds within this sector may be prepared and published by data providers and will be used when evaluating the performance of this Fund. The IA sector most closely reflects the combination of assets in the Fund. The Fund's performance can also be compared to the MSCI AC Asia ex Japan Index as the index constituents are representative of the type of companies the Fund invests in.
