The terms and conditions of the SSE50 Index Linked Exchange Traded Fund (1309) will be amended effective June 29, 2018.
Important points relating to the amendments:
1.The "SSE50 Index Mother Fund" will be excluded from the "Designated Investment Trust Securities", which outlines the investments that are applicable to this ETF. Nomura Asset Management (NAM) took this decision considering the possibility that NAM might be unable to continue managing this Mother Fund in the event of changes in the market environment or regulations, etc. Moreover, we are able to continue to manage this ETF within the guidelines of its product characteristics even if we exclude the SSE50 Index Mother Fund. In general, the manager is able to add new securities to the Designated Investment Trust Securities range or exclude the securities from the range.
