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.
View fundThe Fund aims to track the performance of the STOXX Europe 600 Price Index as closely as possible. The ETF invests in physical index securities. The index measures the performance of the 600 by free float market capitalisation largest stocks across 17 developed European countries.
