KLCD Investment Objective and Strategy
KFA Large Cap Quality Dividend Index ETF describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Krane Shares Trust.
Investment objective
The KFA Large Cap Quality Dividend Index ETF (the Fund) seeks to provide investment results that, before fees and expenses, track the price and yield performance of a specific equity securities index. The Funds current index is the Russell 1000 Dividend Select Equal Weight Index (the Underlying Index).
Principal investment strategy
Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in instruments in its Underlying Index or in instruments that have economic characteristics similar to those in the Underlying Index. The Underlying Index is designed to measure the equity market performance of large cap companies that have increased their dividend payments over a period of ten years (subject to certain exceptions), which the Fund believes is a measure of a quality company. The Underlying Index is derived from the Russell 1000 Index, which is a free float-adjusted, market capitalization weighted index that utilizes a rules-based indexing methodology and includes approximately 1,000 of the largest companies in the Russell 3000 Index. The Russell 3000 Index represents approximately 98% of the investable U.S.
equity market. To be eligible for inclusion in the Underlying Index as of each annual review, securities must be components of the Russell 1000 Index, have had increasing annual per-share regular cash dividends for at least ten consecutive years (subject to certain exceptions) and have had no decrease in quarter-to-quarter dividends per share. On a quarterly basis: (1) the securities with the highest 6- and 12-month risk-adjusted price momentum values are included in the Underlying Index, (2) securities of companies with decreasing quarter-to-quarter dividends are removed from the Underlying Index, and (3) components of the Underlying Index are equal weighted. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in instruments that are not included in the Underlying Index, but that Krane believes will help the Fund track the Underlying Index.
These investments may include equity securities of issuers whose securities are not components of the Underlying Index, derivative instruments (including swaps, futures, forwards, structured notes and options), other investment companies (including ETFs) and cash or cash equivalents (including money market funds). The other investment companies in which the Fund may invest may be advised, sponsored or otherwise serviced by Krane and/or its affiliates. Although the Fund expects to replicate (or hold all components of) the Underlying Index, the Fund reserves the right to use representative sampling to track the Underlying Index. Representative sampling is a strategy that involves investing in a representative sample of securities that collectively have an investment profile similar to the Underlying Index.
The Fund may engage in securities lending. To the extent the Underlying Index is concentrated in a particular industry, the Fund is expected to be concentrated in that industry. As of May 31, 2022, the Underlying Index included 124 securities of companies with a market capitalization range of $1.423 billion to $2.047 trillion and an average market capitalization of $76.182 billion. The largest sector representations in the Underlying Index were the Industrials sector (21.5%) and the Financials sector (19.5%).
