The Equity style box classifies holdings into market capitalization on the vertical axis (company size) and investment style on the horizontal axis (growth or value). This graphical representation is determined by attributing an investment style to each underlying holding, which is then summarised here for the overall fund.
A well-diversified fund doesn't necessarily require holdings across all styles, however, exposure across the Style Box does represent greater diversification.

Ongoing Charges

This Share Class integrates Economies of Scale discounts to the Fund Management Fee (“FMF”) which is a component of the Ongoing Charge Figure. Consequently, when a Fund reaches a certain size (a pre-defined “trigger point”) a discount will automatically apply to the FMF. However, at all other times the FMF will be charged at the rate as set out in the Fund's prospectus. For further details on the Economies of Scale discounts and the trigger points at which they apply, please refer to the Fund's prospectus.
