Strategy

UMAX.AX was created on 2014-09-17 by BetaShares. The fund's investment portfolio concentrates primarily on large cap equity. UMAX.AX aims to generate attractive quarterly income and reduce the volatility of portfolio returns by implementing an equity income investment strategy over a portfolio of stocks comprising the S&P 500 Index. UMAX.AX does not aim to track an index.

Vanguard All-World ex-U.S. Shares Index ETF seeks to track the return of the FTSE All-World ex-US Index before accounting for fees, expenses, and tax. It aims to provide exposure to both the developed and emerging markets with the fund.
