Description

L&G Multi-Strategy Enhanced Commodities UCITS ETF tracks the issuer-declared index: Barclays Backwardation Tilt Multi-Strategy Capped Total Return Index. The declared annual cost (TER) is 0.30%, plus 0.58% in transaction costs estimated by the issuer in the KID. Replication is synthetic replication via a swap contract, as the KID declares; income is accumulated and reinvested in the fund. The fund has assets of about 2.2 billion euro, was launched on 5 July 2021 and is domiciled in Ireland. In our registry it is the largest by assets among the 2 ETFs declaring the same index.

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

The investment objective of the Fund is to provide an exposure to futures contracts on physical commodities. The Fund is passively managed and aims to track the performance of the Barclays Backwardation Tilt Multi-Strategy Capped Total Return Index (the “Index”), before the deduction of fees and expenses. The Index is designed to provide exposure to a diversified portfolio of commodity futures across a range of sectors, including energy, precious metals, industrial metals, livestock and agriculture, in accordance with its methodology. The Fund achieves exposure to the performance of the Index primarily through the use of financial derivative instruments, in particular total return swap agreements. The Fund may also invest in a basket of securities and/or other assets for collateral and liquidity management purposes, and may use other financial derivative instruments for efficient portfolio management or to assist in tracking the performance of the Index. 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 USD 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: (1) looking to grow their money in an investment which can form part of their existing savings portfolio; and (2) familiar with commodity futures contracts and the particular features of the Index, including spot, roll and collateral return. Although investors can take their money out at any time, the Fund 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.

Drawdown — distance from previous peak

This isn’t the return: it shows how far the fund is below its previous peak. 0% = you’re at the peak; below zero = how much you’re down and haven’t recovered yet.

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 0 of the last 4 calendar years: a past observation, not an indication of future outperformance.

Windows longer than the available price history cannot be computed and are not shown: they will appear on their own as time passes. Computed from the daily NAV series, always in nominal terms. Sharpe and Sortino use the ECB main refinancing rate averaged over the period (last year: 2.21%), weighted by days in force, as the risk-free rate. Same formulas as our public methodology: sample standard deviation annualised over 252 days; Sortino with downside deviation. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
