About this fund

Investment objective and strategy
The objective of the Sygnia Itrix MSCI Emerging Markets 50 ETF is to provide an investment vehicle that gives easy access to investors who want to achieve long-term capital appreciation in tracking the performance of the benchmark MSCI Emerging Markets 50 Index (.MXEM50). To achieve this objective, the Sygnia Itrix MSCI Emerging Markets 50 ETF tracks the benchmark index as closely as practically and feasibly possible by buying securities that substantially make up the index at similar weighting as they are included in the Index. Whenever the Index gets rebalanced, the Portfolio will be rebalanced to align its holdings to that of the benchmark and to the extent that it’s performance will not deviate from its benchmark.

Risk profile

The fund has a 100% strategic allocation to global equities. The risk in the fund is managed by spreading investments across countries, sectors and individual shares, but the structure of the fund is dictated by the composition of the MSCI Emerging Markets 50 Index. The fund is far more liquid than the Parent Index and avoids issues of instruments that have limited foreign ownership. The focus on larger, more liquid companies provides an added benefit in terms of risk management.

For the investor

Who should invest
The Sygnia Itrix MSCI Emerging Markets 50 ETF has a high risk profile and is designed to track its benchmark as closely as possible by buying the securities in the benchmark index at weightings similar to those in the index. It is a suitable investment for investors seeking higher returns, those willing to tolerate higher volatility and those aiming to maximise capital accumulation over the longer term. The investment is also suitable for investors who wish to maximise their returns in the most cost-effective manner without having to select asset managers or take on the risk of active and subjective investment decision-making processes.

 

Fees

Annual management fee 0.35% (excl. VAT)
Other expenses 0.03% (excl. VAT)
VAT 0.06%
Total expense ratio (TER) 0.44% (Mar 2025)
Transaction costs (TC) 0.03% (Mar 2025)

A higher TER does not necessarily imply a poor return, nor does a low TER imply a good return. The current TER may not necessarily be an accurate indication of future TERs. TCs are a necessary cost in administering the financial product and impact financial product returns. TCs should not be considered in isolation, as returns may be impacted by many other factors over time, including market returns, the type of financial product, the investment decisions of the investment manager and the TER.

Disclosure and disclaimer

Disclosure
The Sygnia Group is a member of the Association for Savings and Investment SA. Sygnia ltrix (RF) (Pty) Ltd is a registered and approved Manager under the Collective Investment Schemes Control Act, 2002 (CISCA). Sygnia Asset Management (Pty) Limited (FSP 873), an authorised financial services provider, is the appointed investment manager of the fund. Sygnia ltrix does not provide any guarantee with respect to the capital or return of the portfolio. Collective investment schemes are generally medium- to long-term investments. Collective investment schemes are traded at ruling prices and can engage in borrowing and scrip lending. The value of investments/units may go down as well as up, and past performance is not necessarily an indicator of future performance. ETFs trade on stock exchanges and may therefore incur additional costs associated with listed securities. Unlike a unit trust, which can be bought or sold only once per day, an ETF can be traded intraday, during exchange trading hours. ETFs may invest in foreign securities, which may be exposed to macroeconomic, settlement, political, tax, liquidity and foreign exchange risks. Performance is calculated for the portfolio, and individual investor performance may differ as a result of trading cost and price paid for investment share. Additional information on the Index, including its performance and tracking error can be viewed on the relevant minimum disclosure document (MDD) on www.sygnia.co.za. A schedule of fees, charges and – where the ETF engages in securities lending activities, information on such securities lending activities – may be requested via admin@sfs.sygnia.co.za or 0860 794 642. The complete terms and conditions of your ETF investment are contained in the fund’s offering circular, pre-listing statement, programme memorandum and/or supplemental deed, and index constituents with prices are published daily on Sygnia’s website. The documents/information may be obtained from www.sygnia. co.za or on request from Sygnia. Nothing in this document shall be considered to state or imply that the fund is suitable for a particular type of investor. All the portfolio options presented are approved collective investment schemes in terms of CISCA. The Manager has the right to close any portfolios to new investors to manage the portfolios more efficiently in accordance with their mandates.
