EPP provides plain vanilla exposure as it captures the developed economies of Asia-Pacific outside Japan. The fund primarily holds companies from Australia, Hong Kong, New Zealand and Singapore while the Underlying Index covers approximately 85% of the free float-adjusted market capitalization in each country. EPP's overall sector and geographic exposures look market-like. South Korea is excluded by rule as the index classifies it as emerging, not developed. A representative sampling indexing strategy is utilized in order to manage the Fund.
