IGM offers a broad coverage of the North American technology sector. Aside from conventional technology stocks, the fund also includes tech-related stocks from other sectorsspecifically internet retail companies. While IGM is a North American fund, nearly all its assets are allocated to the US. Seeking to provide a diversified exposure to the tech industry, its market-cap-weighted index caps each security's weight at 8.5%. The index is reconstituted semi-annually and rebalanced quarterly. Prior to December 24, 2018, the fund was tracking the S&P North American Technology Index. The change in index was due to a new Communications Services sector developed at the end of 2018.
