Fund Description
The Fund seeks to track the investment results of the NYSE® FactSet® Global Neuro Biopharma and MedTech Index (the “Underlying Index”), which measures the performance of equity securities of companies that are involved in the research, development or manufacturing of neurology biopharmaceuticals or neurological devices, as determined by ICE Data Indices, LLC or its affiliates (the “Index Provider” or “IDI”).
To be eligible for the Underlying Index, an equity security must (i) be listed in one of 44 developed and emerging market countries or regions, (ii) have a float-adjusted market capitalization of at least $100 million and (iii) have a three-month average daily trading value “ADTV”) of at least $1 million. Existing constituents may remain in the Underlying Index with a float-adjusted market capitalization of at least $75
million and a three-month ADTV of at least $750,000 at each index reconstitution and rebalance.
The Underlying Index is composed of securities that are classified within one of two sub-industries defined by the FactSet Revere Business Industry Classification System (“RBICS”): Neurology Biopharmaceuticals and Neurology Devices. For a company to be included in either sub-industry, the sub-industry must represent at least 50% of the company’s annual revenues or, for pre-revenue companies, the company’s primary business as indicated by its product pipeline, each as determined by the Index Provider. The methodology does not require that at least one company from each of the sub-industries be included in the Underlying Index. Constituents may also operate business lines that generate revenue in other industries. The Index Provider seeks to exclude companies whose business description, trade names or supply chain relationships indicate an involvement with psychedelics or cannabis, as determined by the Index Provider based on an analysis using FactSet keyword data.
The Underlying Index is reviewed and reconstituted in March and September and rebalanced quarterly. Constituent weights of the Underlying Index are determined according to float-adjusted market capitalization, and individual constituents are capped at 4% of the Underlying Index at each index reconstitution and rebalance.
As of July 31, 2023, a significant portion of the Underlying Index is represented
by securities of companies in the healthcare, neurology biopharmaceuticals and neurology devices industries or sectors. As of July 31, 2023, the Underlying Index consisted of securities from the following countries or regions: Australia, China, South Korea, Sweden, Switzerland, and the U.S. The Underlying Index includes large-, mid- and small-capitalization companies, and its components are likely to change over time.
BFA uses an indexing approach to try to achieve the Fund’s investment objective. Unlike many investment companies, the Fund does not try to “beat” the index it tracks and does not seek temporary defensive positions when markets decline or appear overvalued.
Indexing may eliminate the chance that the Fund will substantially outperform the Underlying Index but also may reduce some of the risks of active management, such as poor security selection. Indexing seeks to achieve lower costs and better after-tax performance by aiming to keep portfolio turnover low in comparison to actively managed investment companies.
BFA uses a representative sampling indexing strategy to manage the Fund. “Representative sampling” is an indexing strategy that involves investing in a representative sample of securities that collectively has an investment profile similar to that of an applicable underlying index. The securities selected are expected to have, in the aggregate, investment characteristics (based on factors such as market capitalization and industry weightings), fundamental characteristics (such as return variability and yield) and liquidity
measures similar to those of an applicable underlying index. The Fund may or may not hold all of the securities in the Underlying Index.
The Fund generally will invest at least 80% of its assets in the component securities of its Underlying Index and in investments that have economic characteristics that are substantially identical to the component securities of its Underlying Index (i.e., depositary receipts representing securities of the Underlying Index) and may invest up to 20% of its assets in certain futures, options and swap contracts, cash and cash equivalents, including shares of money market funds advised by BFA or its affiliates, as well as in securities not included in the Underlying Index, but which BFA believes will help the Fund track the Underlying Index. Cash and cash equivalent investments associated with a derivative position will be treated as part of that position for the purposes of calculating the percentage of investments included in the Underlying Index. The Fund seeks to track the investment results of the Underlying Index before fees and expenses of the Fund.
The Fund may lend securities representing up to one-third of the value of the Fund's total assets (including the value of any collateral received).
The Underlying Index is owned, maintained and administered by the Index Provider, which is independent of the Fund and BFA. The Index Provider determines the composition and relative weightings of the securities in the Underlying Index and publishes information regarding the market value of the Underlying Index.
Industry Concentration Policy. The Fund will concentrate its investments
i.e., hold 25% or more of its total assets) in a particular industry or group of industries to approximately the same extent that the Underlying Index is concentrated. For purposes of this limitation, securities of the U.S. government (including its agencies and instrumentalities) and repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. government securities are not considered to be issued by members of any industry.
