Description & usage
This equity ETF tracks the S&P Global 1200 Health Care Index and invests in healthcare companies worldwide. Performance reflects price moves and dividends from the constituents, minus ongoing fees (TER). It is used to gain targeted exposure to pharmaceuticals, medical devices, healthcare providers and related segments. Because it concentrates on one sector, diversification is lower than in broad-market equity ETFs.
