The Fund aims to achieve a return on your investment, through a combination of capital growth and income on the Fund’s assets, which reflects the return of the MSCI World Industrials Advanced Select 20 35 Capped Index (the Index). The Fund, aims to invest in the equity securities (e.g. shares) that make up the Index. The Index measures the performance of large and mid capitalisation companies in developed countries across Europe which are within the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS) financials sector and which comply with MSCI's size, liquidity and free-float criteria. The GICS financials sector currently comprises companies involved in activities such as banking, mortgage finance, consumer finance, specialised finance, investment banking and brokerage, asset management and custody, corporate lending, insurance, and financial investment and transaction and payment processing services. Companies are included in the Index on a free float-adjusted market capitalisation weighted basis. Free float means that only shares readily available in the market rather than all of a company’s issued shares are used in calculating the Index. Free float-adjusted market capitalisation is the share price of a company multiplied by the number of shares readily available in the market. The Parent Index measures the performance of large and mid capitalisation stocks across developed market countries which comply with MSCI's size, liquidity and free-float criteria that are within the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS) industrials sector. The GICS industrials sector includes companies which are involved in the manufacture and distribution of capital goods, the provision of commercial and professional services and supplies and the provision of transportation services. The Fund intends to replicate the Index by holding the equity securities, which make up the Index, in similar proportions to it. The investment manager may use financial derivative instruments (FDIs) (i.e. investments the prices of which are based on one or more underlying assets) to help achieve the Fund’s investment objective. FDIs may be used for direct investment purposes. The Fund adopts a binding and significant ESG optimisation approach to sustainable investing. The Fund may obtain limited exposure to securities (including FDIs and units in collective investment schemes) considered not to satisfy these ESG criteria. The Fund may also engage in short-term secured lending of its investments to certain eligible third parties to generate additional income to off-set the costs of the Fund. The price of equity securities fluctuates daily and may be influenced by factors affecting the performance of the individual companies issuing the equities, as well as by daily stock market movements, and broader economic and political developments which in turn may affect the value of your investment. The relationship between the return on your investment, how it is impacted and the period for which you hold your investment is considered below (see “How long should I hold it and can I take my money out early?”).
