£IUSA
The investment objective of this Fund is to provide investors with a total return, taking into account both capital and income returns, which reflects the return of the S&P 500. The Index measures the performance of 500 stocks from top US companies in leading industries of the US economy which comply with S&Ps size, liquidity and free-float criteria.

The Fund aims to track the performance of STOXX Europe 600 Index (the "Index"), and to minimize the tracking error between the net asset value of the sub-fund and the performance of the Index. The STOXX Europe 600 Index provides exposure to the performance of the 600 most liquid large, mid and small caps stocks covering developed markets in Europe.
