The investment objective of the Fund is to achieve a return on your investment, through a combination of capital growth and income on the Fund’s assets, which reflects the return of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, the Fund’s benchmark index. The Fund is passively managed and aims to invest, so far as possible and practicable, in the stocks that make up the Index. The Index measures the performance of large- and mid-cap stocks across emerging markets, with constituents selected based on the proportion of shares available for purchase by international investors. The Fund intends to replicate the Index by holding its constituent stocks in similar proportions, although it may use financial derivative instruments, American Depositary Receipts and/or Global Depositary Receipts to gain exposure to certain securities. The Fund’s shares are accumulating, meaning income is included in their value.

The Fund employs a passive management approach, through physical acquisition of securities, and seeks to track the performance of the FTSE 100 Index. The Index is comprised of large-sized company stocks in the UK. The Fund attempts to track the performance of the Index by investing in all constituent securities of the Index in the same proportion as the Index. Where not practicable to fully replicate the process, the Fund will use a sampling process. The Fund may use derivatives to reduce risk and/or generate extra income, and may engage in short-term secured lending of its investments. The Fund's base currency is GBP, and income from the ETF Shares is reinvested and reflected in the share price.
