HSBC Global Funds ICAV - Global Emerging Market Government Bond Index Fund - HC USD ACC

The Fund aims to provide regular income and capital growth by tracking as closely as possible the performance of the JPMorgan EMBI Global Diversified Index (total return) (the Index). The Index is comprised of investment and non-investment grade bonds. The currency of the Index is US dollars (USD) and returns are unhedged, and it includes fixed-rate and floating-rate government and government-related bonds from emerging markets issuers. The Fund is passively managed and invests in, or gain exposure to: bonds issued by governments and government-related entities, all of which are Index constituents. The Fund utilises an investment technique called optimisation, which seeks to minimise the difference in return between the Fund and the Index by taking into account tracking error (the risk that the Fund return varies from the Index return) and trading costs when constructing a portfolio. The Fund will not necessarily invest in every constituent of the Index, or invest proportionally to each constituents' Index weight. If the overall portfolio matches the characteristics of the Index, the Fund can also invest in assets outside of the Index, such as: securities which are expected to provide similar performance and risk characteristics to certain Index constituents.
