Description of Methodology
Hartford Multifactor Emerging Markets Equity Index seeks to enhance risk-adjusted return potential available from investment in emerging market companies. The rules-based, proprietary methodology utilizes an optimization process to help achieve the desired composition and targeted characteristics, including reduced volatility, relative sector, country and size constraints and positive value, momentum and quality relative factor score at the portfolio level. The Index seeks to harvest risk premia factors through systematic risk-and factor-weighting twice annually, with a reconstitution occurring in March and September.
