An Equity Portfolio Focused on Insurance

IAK tracks the Dow Jones U.S. Select Insurance Index. The benchmark measures the insurance sector of the US equity market and can include companies of different sizes. Its focus groups insurers within a dedicated financial industry portfolio.

The fund uses representative sampling, selecting investments intended to resemble the benchmark’s overall characteristics. It may therefore hold a different collection of securities from the index while seeking a similar Investment profile.

Portfolio Composition and Exposure

IAK reported 65 holdings as of 30 October 2026. Its allocation by Market Value included Property & Casualty Insurance at 77.48%, Life & Health Insurance at 22.18% and MULTI-LINE INSURANCE at 0.20% as of 30 October 2026.

The fact sheet dated 30 September 2026 identified holdings including Progressive at 13.51%, Chubb at 12.80% and Travelers Companies at 8.33%. These position weights refer to that reporting date and can change as the portfolio and market values evolve.

The same fact sheet reported a P/E ratio of 11.46x and a P/B ratio of 1.64x. These valuation measures complement the holdings information with Earnings and book-value characteristics associated with the equity portfolio.

Fees and Distribution Policy

The published expense ratio is 0.37%. Distributions are scheduled quarterly.

The 30-day SEC Yield was 1.24% as of 30 September 2026. This standardised income measure reflects the fund’s recent income after expenses; it is separate from changes in the market value of its shares.

The prospectus notes that brokerage commissions and other intermediary charges may apply separately. Fund shares trade at market prices, which can differ from NAV, so the stated NAV does not establish the price of every exchange transaction.

Key Insights

Claims experience, catastrophic events, regulation and investment conditions can affect insurance businesses. The sector mandate therefore retains exposure to Underwriting and financial risks at the underlying companies.
