Fund Details
Voya International Index Port S Overview
Voya International Index Port S (INTIX) is a passively managed International Equity Foreign Large Blend fund. Voya launched the fund in 2008.

The fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in investments tied to the index. The Portfolio invests principally in equity securities and employs a passive management approach designed to track the performance of the index (currently the MSCI EAFE® Index).

Assets Under Management
The fund has $30 million in total assets, which is below the $2 billion average for the Foreign Large Blend category.

However, for some investment categories, such as small-cap investing, it may be difficult for the manager to fully employ the desired active strategy if assets grow too large or too quickly.

Voya International Index Port S has an expense ratio of 0.70%, which is 26% lower than its category average, making the fund expense ratio grade a B. While it is difficult to predict returns, it is known that high annual expense ratios reduce your rate of return, and excessive fees are difficult to overcome. Active management normally comes with higher expense ratios than passive index management. Certain investment categories such as small company and foreign also normally have higher expense ratios. It is best to compare fund expense ratios against the category averages for meaningful assessments.
