Overview
Overview
IndexIQ's IQ Hedge Beta Indexes were launched in March 2007 as the market's first family of hedge fund replication indexes. This suite of indexes serves as the basis for IndexIQ's other hedge fund replication indexes, which themselves underlie IndexIQ's hedge fund replication ETFs.
The IQ Hedge Emerging Markets Beta Index (IQHGEMB) seeks to replicate the risk-adjusted return characteristics of the collective hedge funds using an emerging markets investment style. Emerging markets hedge fund managers typically invest in financial instruments such as equities, sovereign and corporate debt issues and currencies of countries in "emerging" markets, which are those in a transitional state from developing to developed.
Performance
Performance
The performance data quoted above represents past performance. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Performance may be lower or higher than performance data quoted. Index performance is for illustrative purposes only and does not represent actual Fund performance. One cannot invest directly in an index. Performance data for the Index assumes reinvestment of dividends and is net of the management fees for the Index's components, as applicable, but it does not reflect management fees, transaction costs or other expenses that you would pay if you invested in the Fund directly. Results prior to an Index component's existence as an ETF are based on its underlying index, which do not reflect underlying management fees.
IQ Hedge Emerging Markets Beta Index is the exclusive property of IndexIQ which has contracted with Structured Solutions to maintain and calculate the Index.
