This Sub-Fund is passively managed. The Sub-Fund is a financial product that promotes among other characteristics ESG characteristics pursuant to Article 8 of the Disclosure Regulation. The objective of this Sub-Fund is to track the performance of MSCI World ESG Broad CTB Select Index (the "Index"). The anticipated level of the tracking error, under normal market conditions, is indicated in the prospectus of the Sub-Fund. The Index is a net total return index, meaning that dividends net of tax paid by the index constituents are included in the Index return. The Index is an equity index based on the MSCI World Index representative of the large and mid-cap stocks across 23 developed market countries (the "Parent Index"), which excludes companies from the Parent Index based on social and environmental criteria. In addition, the Index aims to represent the performance of a strategy that reweights securities according to the opportunities and risks associated with the climate transition, in order to meet the minimum requirements of the EU Climate Transition Benchmark (EU CTB) under the Benchmark Regulation. The Index is constructed by applying a combination of values based exclusions and an optimization process that minimises the ex-ante tracking error compared to the Parent Index while ensuring that the ESG score of the Index is at least equal to the ESG Score of the Parent Index, and to meet the EU CTB minimum requirements while targeting a similar risk profile to the Parent Index. For further information on the exclusions applied by the Index pursuant to the EU Climate Transition Benchmarks, please refer to the "Guidelines on funds’ names using ESG or sustainability-related terms" section of the Prospectus. More information about the composition of the Index and its operating rules are available in the prospectus and at: msci.com. The Index value is available via Bloomberg (MXWOEBSL). The exposure to the Index will be achieved through a Direct Replication, mainly by making direct investments in transferable securities and/or other eligible assets representing the Index constituents in a proportion extremely close to their proportion in the Index. The Investment Manager will be able to use derivatives in order to deal with inflows and outflows and which relate to the Index or constituents of the Index for investment and/or efficient portfolio management. In order to generate additional income to offset its costs, the Sub-Fund may also enter into securities lending operations.

LWCH is hedged to EUR; the index the issuer places next to it in its documents is the unhedged, foreign-currency version. Subtracting one from the other does not measure replication quality: it measures the exchange rate. In a year when the currency moves 5%, “the TD” would come out near 5 points — a plausible-looking number, with decimals, and wrong.

Other sites publish that number. We would rather show one figure less than one figure wrong: the TD will return here the day we have the EUR-hedged index series, which the issuer does not publish today.
