DFAW is an ETF of ETFs that targets long-term growth of capital. It predominantly invests in Underlying Funds managed by the Adviser. The fund's investment methodology is driven by comprehensive research, strategic portfolio construction and management, along with effective trading operations. DFAW focuses on selecting its securities based on long-term return predictions, company growth prospects, and risk profiles. It aims to diversify its allocations across market caps, geographical regions, sectors including real estate, and potentially, foreign currencies. The Adviser regularly reviews and adjusts the fund's distributions, considering factors such as price momentum and changes in a firm's assets to increase or reduce its exposure. The fund is actively managed, which means investment decisions are at the discretion of the Adviser and as a result, may have a higher degree of portfolio turnover.
