Full fund details
- Objective
- Seeks capital appreciation by participating in positive returns of the Underlying ETF up to the Upside Cap and buffered returns against losses less than 10% over the Outcome Period.
- Strategy
- Invests primarily in the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust to provide dual-direction positive returns regardless of the Underlying ETF's performance over the Outcome Period. Seeks to replicate the Underlying ETF's performance, providing returns up to the Upside Cap if positive, or matching losses up to 10% if negative, subject to limitations. The Upside Cap is set at the start of the Outcome Period, expected between 12.51% and 13.76% before fees, and 11.72% to 12.97% after management fees.

Structural notes on how this fund behaves. Read our guide on the 6 warning signs.
You can build this cheaper yourself
Defined-outcome funds cap your gains (often 8% to 20%) in exchange for cushioning losses by 9% to 30%, priced with options. The fee runs about 0.70% or more, against 0.03% to 0.10% for a plain index fund. For most investors, a simple stock-and-bond mix gives similar protection for far less.
