Fund Aims
Objective: The investment strategy of the fund is to purchase units in the M&G PP Asia Pacific (ex Japan) Equity Index Fund - the underlying fund.
Underlying fund objective: The fund gains its exposure via the M&G Funds (1) BlackRock Asia Pacific (ex Japan) Equity fund. The underlying fund aims to be fully invested in the equity securities and equity related securities of companies that are constituents of the FTSE World Asia Pacific ex Japan Index.
Within the index-relative limits, the Investment Manager uses a structured and systematic, bottom up stock selection process to build a portfolio with similar risk-return characteristics as the index in order to meet the fund's investment objectives. In addition to the fund's objective, the Investment Manager aims to maximise the fund's ESG characteristics by overweighting its investments in securities which score well against the Investment Manager's ESG research framework and underweighting the securities which score less well.
Performance Objective: The fund aims to provide a total return (i.e. capital growth plus income), gross of the Ongoing Charges Figure, over any three year period.

Commentary
Performance as at Q4 2023 - Asia Pacific ex Japan lagged the global equity market in the fourth quarter, not helped by the weak performance of China and Hong Kong, which together represent a sizeable weight of the regional index in market capitalisation terms. Some investors continue to be concerned by the lacklustre growth of the Chinese economy and problems in its property sector. Sentiment was also hurt by a cut in the country’s credit outlook to negative, by ratings agency Moody’s. Other markets that lagged the regional index included Singapore, Thailand and the Philippines. Better-performing markets included India, South Korea and Taiwan. India’s stockmarket has benefited from significant interest from investors attracted by the robust economic growth of the world’s most populous country. Taiwan and South Korea benefited from strength in the technology sector, which represents a significant proportion of both markets.

Important Information
Because of changes in exchange rates the value of your investment, as well as any money you take from it, can go down as well as up.
Some funds may invest in ‘underlying’ funds or other investment vehicles. The performance of our fund, compared to what it’s invested in won’t be exactly the same. That can be due to additional charges, cash management (needed to help people to enter and leave our fund when they want), tax and the timing of investments (this is known as a fund’s dealing cycle, it varies between managers and can be several days).

Because of changes in exchange rates the value of your investment, as well as any money you take from it, can go down as well as up.
Some funds may invest in ‘underlying’ funds or other investment vehicles. The performance of our fund, compared to what it’s invested in won’t be exactly the same. That can be due to additional charges, cash management (needed to help people to enter and leave our fund when they want), tax and the timing of investments (this is known as a fund’s dealing cycle, it varies between managers and can be several days).

This factsheet is for information purposes only. If there is information or terminology included that you would like to discuss, then please contact an adviser. Investors should refer to their policy documentation and supporting brochures for fund availability, investment strategy, any product information and charges.

These risk ratings have been developed by Prudential to help provide an indication of a fund’s potential level of risk and reward based on the type of assets which may be held by the fund. Other companies may use different descriptions and as such these risk ratings should not be considered as generic across the fund management industry.
We regularly review our fund risk ratings, so they may change in the future. If, in our view, there is a material change in the fund's level of risk, for example due to a significant change to the assets held by the fund or in the way the fund is managed, we will provide information on the new risk rating. We recommend that you make sure you understand the risk rating of any fund before you invest.
You should also consider discussing your decision and the appropriateness of a fund's risk rating with an adviser.

Source of performance data: FE fundinfo. We can’t predict the future. Past performance isn’t a guide to future performance. The figures shown are intended only to demonstrate performance history of the fund, after allowing for the impact of fund charges and further costs, but take no account of any Annual Management Charge paid for by the deduction of units. Charges and further costs may vary in the future and may be higher than they are now. Fund performance is based upon the movement of the daily price and is shown as total return in GBP with gross income reinvested. The value of your investment can go down as well as up so you might get back less than you put in.
