What does the CURE invest in?

The CURE ETF invests in biotechnology stocks trading on major US exchanges. CURE tracks the performance of the S&P Biotechnology Select Industry Index by holding all of the shares that make up the index, closely in proportion to their index weights. These companies are classified as belonging to the GICS biotechnology sub-industry, and must meet certain market capitalisation and liquidity requirements.

What do investors use CURE for?

CURE could be used by investors to get tactical exposure to a basket of companies within the USA’s biotechnology industry. Most biotech companies are heavily research-focused and their success can often depend on one breakthrough or regulatory approval, making it a speculative industry.

Best ETFs warnings

The following warnings are applied by our team, based on quantitative metrics and our internal methodology. These risks are not exhaustive and therefore they should not be relied upon. Always read the PDS of the function and speak to your financial adviser before acting on this information.

Track Record

When an ETF does not have a sufficiently long track record — typically, we consider this to be at least 3 years — the ETF could be at a higher risk of being closed down (if it doesn’t grow), and the historical performance and returns (if any) cannot be relied upon.

Tax Domicile

When a fund/ETF has a “domicile” of Australia it means it is a registered fund in Australia for tax purposes. This means investors who buy into this fund or ETF, and are Australian residents for tax purposes, will be subject to Australian taxes and regulation.

Registry

Computershare is not only the largest share registry in Australia but also the world. The company was founded in 1978 as one of Melbourne’s first start-up technology companies, initially providing computer services to businesses.
