About this fund
Fund objectives
- The Fund employs a passive management – or indexing – investment approach, through physical acquisition of securities, and seeks to track the performance of the FTSE Developed Europe ex U.K. Index (the “Index”).
- The Index is comprised of large and mid-sized company stocks in developed markets in Europe, excluding the UK.
- The Fund attempts to: 1. 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 Fund will use a sampling process. 2. Remain fully invested except in extraordinary market, political or similar conditions.
Why this fund
- The Fund seeks to track the performance of the Index, a widely recognised market- capitalization weighted index of stock market performance of European developed countries, excluding the United Kingdom, that is comprised of the stocks of large and mid capitalisation companies in that region.
- The Fund employs a passive management or indexing investment approach, through physical acquisition of securities, designed to track the performance of the Index, a free float adjusted market capitalisation weighted index.
- In tracking the performance of the Index, the Fund attempts to replicate the Index by investing all, or substantially all, of its assets in the stocks that make up the Index, holding each stock in approximately the same proportion as its weighting in the Index.

Please see the fund’s fact sheet and prospectus for important information about risk’s specific to the fund. All investing is subject to risk, which may result in loss of principal. Prices of mid-and small-cap stocks often fluctuate more than those of large-company stocks. Stocks of companies based in emerging markets are subject to national and regional political and economic risks and to the risk of currency fluctuations. These risks are especially high in emerging markets. Funds that concentrate on a relatively narrow market sector face the risk of higher share-price volatility.
