BUG provides exposure to companies involved in the development and management of security protocols preventing intrusion and attacks to systems, networks, applications, computers, and mobile devices. Eligible securities are those in emerging and developed countries and are selected based on revenue which must be at least 50% generated from cybersecurity activities. The fund also invests in ADRs and GDRs based on such securities. The index weights its constituents by market-cap but each are subject to caps, thereby limiting concentration on large-cap companies and increasing exposure to other companies. The top 40 cybersecurity companies will form the final index. The index is reconstituted and re-weighted semi-annually.
