C000127144 Investment Objective and Strategy
iShares MSCI Colombia ETF describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by iShares, Inc..
Investment objective
The iShares MSCI Colombia ETF (the “Fund”) seeks to track the investment results of a broad-based index composed of Colombian equities.
Principal investment strategy
The Fund seeks to track the investment results of the MSCI All Colombia Capped Index (the Underlying Index), which is designed to represent the performance of the broad Colombia equity universe. The Underlying Index consists of equity securities of companies (i) that are classified in Colombia according to the MSCI Global Investable Market Index Methodology, together with (ii) companies that are not classified in Colombia according to the MSCI Global Investable Market Index Methodology but are either headquartered or listed in Colombia and have significant linkage to Colombia, as defined by MSCI, or (iii) that have economic exposure greater than 10% to Colombia, as defined by MSCI, only in the case that the first two criteria do not result in the target number of securities and issuers. The Underlying Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization-weighted index with a capping methodology applied to issuer weights so that no single issuer of a component exceeds 25% of the Underlying Index weight, and all issuers with a weight above 5% do not cumulatively exceed 50% of the Underlying Index weight.
The Underlying Index may include large-, mid-, small- or micro-capitalization companies. As of August 31, 2017, a significant portion of the Underlying Index is represented by securities of financials and materials companies. The components of the Underlying Index, and the degree to which these components represent certain industries, are likely to change over time. BFA uses a passive or indexing approach to try to achieve the Funds investment objective. Unlike many investment companies, the Fund does not try to beat the index it tracks and does not seek temporary defensive positions when markets decline or appear overvalued. Indexing may eliminate the chance that the Fund will substantially outperform the Underlying Index but also may reduce some of the risks of active management, such as poor security selection.
Indexing seeks to achieve lower costs and better after-tax performance by keeping portfolio turnover low in comparison to actively managed investment companies. BFA uses a representative sampling indexing strategy to manage the Fund. Representative sampling is an indexing strategy that involves investing in a representative sample of securities that collectively has an investment profile similar to that of an applicable underlying index. The securities selected are expected to have, in the aggregate, investment characteristics (based on factors such as market capitalization and industry weightings), fundamental characteristics (such as return variability and yield) and liquidity measures similar to those of an applicable underlying index. The Fund may or may not hold all of the securities in the Underlying Index.
The Fund generally will invest at least 90% of its assets in the component securities of the Underlying Index and in investments that have economic characteristics that are substantially identical to the component securities of the Underlying Index (i.e., depositary receipts representing securities of the Underlying Index) and may invest up to 10% of its assets in certain futures, options and swap contracts, cash and cash equivalents, including shares of money market funds advised by BFA or its affiliates, as well as in securities not included in the Underlying Index, but which BFA believes will help the Fund track the Underlying Index. The Fund seeks to track the investment results of the Underlying Index before fees and expenses of the Fund. The Fund may lend securities representing up to one-third of the value of the Fund's total assets (including the value of any collateral received).
The Underlying Index is sponsored by MSCI Inc. (the Index Provider or MSCI), which is independent of the Fund and BFA. The Index Provider determines the composition and relative weightings of the securities in the Underlying Index and publishes information regarding the market value of the Underlying Index. Industry Concentration Policy. The Fund will concentrate its investments (i.e., hold 25% or more of its total assets) in a particular industry or group of industries to approximately the same extent that the Underlying Index is concentrated. For purposes of this limitation, securities of the U.S. government (including its agencies and instrumentalities) and repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. government securities are not considered to be issued by members of any industry.
