ABOUT THIS FUND
CHIP tracks an index of global companies essential to the AI chip manufacturing process. The fund invests in companies deriving significant revenues three segments: Wafer Fabrication Equipment (50%) covering machinery and subsystems used in AI chipmaking, Advanced Packaging (25%) covering high-tech semiconductor assembly for complex AI architectures, and Metrology (25%) covering precision testing and measurement for advanced chip yields. The fund invests in equity securities on select developed market exchanges meeting minimum market-cap and liquidity requirements. Specialty chemicals companies with broad applications beyond chipmaking are excluded. The portfolio is market-cap weighted within each segment allocation, subject to individual caps. The index is rebalanced and reconstituted quarterly.
