The fund's benchmark index is constructed to identify and track the performance of a carefully selected group of companies. These companies are collectively characterized by superior financial health and greater stability when compared to the broader Northern Trust International Large Cap Index. To achieve its investment goal, the fund will allocate a minimum of 80% of its total assets to the securities that comprise this specific underlying index, including any American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs) representing those index securities.
