Global equity exposure with a Emerging Markets tilt. Emerging Markets is the largest region at 70.9%, and it carried more weight in returns than any other market. It tracks the FTSE China 50 Index. Sector exposure is also tilted toward Consumer Discretionary.
Top holding: Tencent Holdings Ltd 9.1% (broad) · Top sector: Consumer Discretionary 35.4% (sector-tilted) · Top region: Emerging Markets 70.9% (region-tilted)

Look-through via underlying funds.
The management fee was 0.86% a year, or about $86 for every $10,000 held. This figure is the fund's own fee; the underlying funds it holds are covered by it rather than charged again. Trading spreads are separate from this fee. This is the management fee as published by the provider; the total expense ratio can be slightly higher once fund operating costs are added.
