Actual allocations may vary by up to 3%. The FTSE 100 represents the performance of the 100 largest UK-domiciled blue chip companies. The TOPIX comprises all companies listed on the First Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange (approximately 1,694 companies). The EuroSTOXX 50 index represents the performance of the 50 largest companies in 11 Eurozone countries. The S&P/ASX 200 represents the 200 largest and most liquid publicly listed companies in Australia. Each of these indices is weighted by market capitalization. The Portfolio uses a strategy that is commonly referred to as an indexing strategy. With respect to investments in companies represented in the FTSE 100, EuroSTOXX 50, and S&P/ASX 200, the Sub-Adviser generally uses a replication technique, although a sampling approach may be used in certain circumstances. With respect to investments in companies represented in the TOPIX, the Sub-Adviser selects investments using a stratified sampling construction process in which the Sub-Adviser selects a sub-set of the companies represented in the index based on the Sub-Advisers analysis of key risk factors and other characteristics. Such factors include industry weightings, market capitalizations, return variability, and yields. Show less
