The Fund is passively managed and seeks to track performance of the S&P Developed ESG Elite Dividend Aristocrats Index (Net Return) (the 'Index'). The index measures the performance of high dividend yielding / ESG-scoring companies that meet sustainability criteria as defined in this methodology, and meet the eligibility criteria defined in the S&P Developed Dividend Aristocrats® Index. Constituents are selected from eligible companies in the S&P Developed Broad Market Index (BMI) that have followed a managed-dividends policy of increasing or maintaining dividends for at least 10 consecutive years. Constituents are weighted by indicated dividend yield. The Fund invests at least 90% of its total net assets in securities that are constituents of the Index and the index provider applies ESG Ratings. The Index is eliminating at least 20% of the least well-rated securities as against the BMI. It is expected that the Fund's resulting ESG rating will be higher than the ESG rating of a Fund tracking the BMI. It will seek to hold all of the shares of the Index, in the same proportions as the Index, so that essentially the portfolio will be a near mirror image of the Index. In seeking to implement its investment objective of tracking the performance of the Index, the Fund may also in exceptional circumstances hold securities which are not comprised in its Index, including, for example, securities in respect of which there has been an announcement or it is expected that they will shortly be included in the Index. The Fund may, for the purpose of reducing risk, reducing costs or generating additional capital or income, use derivative instruments. The use of derivative instruments may multiply the gains or losses made by the Fund on given investment or on its investments generally. Currency hedged share classes may also be available in the Fund. It promotes environmental and/or social characteristics but does not have a sustainable investment objective. It will not enter into any securities lending. The return of the fund depends mainly on the performance of the tracked index. This class distributes its net income in order to maintain the maximum tracking accuracy of the S&P Developed ESG Elite Dividend Aristocrats Index (Net Return).
