FTSE 100 Currency Hedged ETF
Overview
Fund objective
H100 aims to track the performance of the AUD currency hedged FTSE 100 Index (before fees and expenses), which provides exposure to the largest 100 companies by market capitalisation traded on the London Stock Exchange. H100 currently obtains its investment exposure by investing in the Betashares FTSE 100 ETF (ASX: F100), with the foreign currency exposure hedged back to the Australian dollar.
Benefits
Access global leaders
H100 provides exposure to a widely recognised benchmark of 100 blue-chip companies listed on the LSE in one ASX trade, including UK based global leaders such as HBSC, Diageo and Unilever.
Portfolio diversification
Invest in a number of household names that are only accessible via the UK sharemarket, providing diversification benefits in terms of both company exposure and industry sectors.
Currency-hedged
H100 is currency-hedged to the Australian dollar, which seeks to minimise the effect of currency fluctuations on returns.

Past performance is not an indicator of future performance. Returns are calculated in Australian dollars using net asset value per unit at the start and end of the specified period and do not reflect brokerage or the bid ask spread that investors incur when buying and selling units on the ASX. Returns are after fund management costs, assume reinvestment of any distributions and do not take into account tax paid as an investor in the Fund. Returns for periods longer than one year are annualised. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance shown.
