This fund tracks the STOXX Global Automation & Robotics index, which includes companies that generate significant revenue (at least 50%) from sectors associated with the automation and robotics theme.
These companies are spread across a number of different sectors, such as tech, industrials, consumer goods and healthcare.
This is primarily a thematic fund, as it targets a specific investment theme. It does track an index, making it a passively managed fund, but its index is rule-based, rather than tracking a specific section of the market (like the S&P 500).
Thematic investments don’t tend to give broad market exposure on their own, so should form part of a diverse portfolio.

Thematic ETFs typically come with a higher risk warning, and investors should be aware of the key information on all of their investments, available in the Key Investor Document (KID).
Thematics are confined to particular themes, so don’t always ensure investment in a diverse spread of assets. This might be something to consider if you’re a beginner, as the volatility of these types of investments can be higher.
Automation & Robotics is a diverse thematic, with broad applications spanning an array of sectors. It’s important to remember that thematic investments do come with some more risk, so investors may consider thematic investors as a portion of a broad portfolio of investments.
No. This is an accumulating fund, meaning any returns generated are automatically reinvested for you. This reinvestment type is best suited for investors seeking long-term growth on their investment.
