The fund’s objective — in the issuer’s words

The investment objective of the Fund is to provide exposure to the large and mid-cap equity market in the United Kingdom. The Fund is passively managed and aims to track the performance of the Solactive Core United Kingdom Large & Mid Cap Index Net Total Return (the “Index”), before the deduction of fees and expenses. The Index is designed to provide exposure to large and mid capitalisation companies in the United Kingdom, in accordance with its methodology.

Keep reading the KID section ▾

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in equity securities that, as far as possible and practicable, make up the Index in similar proportions to their weightings in the Index. Where it is not possible or practicable to invest directly in all of the constituents of the Index, the Fund may also invest in equity related securities and instruments that are not constituents of the Index but have similar risk and performance characteristics, and may use financial derivative instruments for efficient portfolio management or to assist in tracking the performance of the Index. The Fund promotes a range of environmental and social characteristics which are met by tracking the Index. Further information on how such characteristics are met by the Fund can be found in the Fund Supplement. This Share Class does not intend to pay dividends. Any income which may result from the Fund's investments will be re-invested into the Fund. Shares in this Share Class (the "Shares") are denominated in GBP and can be bought and sold on stock exchanges by ordinary investors using an intermediary (e.g. a stockbroker). In normal circumstances, only Authorised Participants may buy and sell Shares directly with the Company. Authorised Participants may redeem their Shares on demand in accordance with the "Dealing Timetable" published on http://www.lgim.com.

The depositary of the Fund is the Bank of New York Mellon SA/NV, Dublin Branch. Further information about the Fund and the share class can be obtained from the Company's prospectus and the annual and semi-annual reports, which are available, in addition to the latest prices for the share class and details of any other share classes, free of charge at: www.lgim.com.

Intended Retail Investor:The Fund is designed for investors looking for growth from an investment in UK company shares. Although investors can take their money out at any time, this ETF may not be appropriate for those who plan to withdraw their money within five years. The Fund is not designed for investors who cannot afford more than a minimal loss of their investment.

From month-end NAVs, over the fund’s full history, on the series shown in the chart (dividends reinvested where declared). Deeper colour = larger move.
Source: LGIM. Issuer-declared historical series; inflation: Eurostat and national statistical institutes, latest available July 2026 — for later days the index stays at the last published value (institutes publish with a few weeks’ lag). The «adjusted for inflation» view expresses value in today’s purchasing power for the selected country; volatility always stays nominal, as elsewhere on the site (deflating it would add artificial swings caused by the monthly cadence of the price index). Past performance is not indicative of future results: these are facts, not a recommendation.

Tracking difference — fund vs index

How much the fund returned above (+) or below (−) its index, year by year. It measures the actual deviation: the combined effect of costs (TER and transaction), securities-lending revenue and replication optimisations — which is why it can beat the TER. Tracking difference was positive in 1 of the last 7 calendar years: a past observation, not an indication of future outperformance.
