Explained on 26 October 2026. This is an educational answer drawn from the dated article below; examples are hypothetical unless a specific source observation is identified.

How it works

The difference may be an intended feature of the mandate, but it should be visible to the investor. A count of companies also cannot show whether a few positions dominate. Compare the portfolio’s largest weights and shared exposures with other holdings before calling the total allocation diversified.

A simple example

A hypothetical parent has exposure across ten sectors, while a screen leaves meaningful weights in six. That does not automatically make the screened product unsuitable; it means the resulting concentration must be understood on its own terms. These counts are illustrative, not the October index composition.

What to check

  • Inspect actual sector and security weights after screening.
  • Compare with the investor’s other funds.
  • Distinguish intended constraints from missing-data gaps.
