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

- The objective of the Fund is to provide investors with investment results which, before expenses, correspond to the price and yield performance of the FTSE Time-Weighted US Fallen Angel Bond Select Index (Total Return) (the "Index"). - The Fund’s base currency is USD. - The Index measures the performance of US Dollar "fallen angels" i.e., US Dollar corporate bonds which were a.) previously rated investment-grade (higher quality) and subsequently downgraded to high-yield (lower quality); or b.) previously rated high-yield, subsequently rated investment-grade and then downgraded again to high yield. The Index is based on the FTSE Time-Weighted US Fallen Angel Bond Index which includes US Dollar-denominated bonds issued by corporations where the country is assigned as Australia, Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States. - This document provides a summary of the principal features of the Index, the complete description of the Index (available from the Index provider) shall at all times prevail. Investors should note that the Index is the intellectual property of the index provider. The Fund is not sponsored or endorsed by the index provider and a full disclaimer can be found in the Fund’s supplement. - The Fund is a passively managed ETF. - To achieve the objective the Fund will, as far as possible and practicable, replicate the Index by holding all the securities in the Index in a similar proportion to their respective weightings in the Index. - The Index is rebalanced on a monthly basis. - The Fund may engage in securities lending, whereby 90% of the revenues arising from securities lending will be returned to the Fund and 10% of the revenues will be retained by the securities lending agent. The Fund may be exposed to the risk of the borrower defaulting on its obligation to return the securities at the end of the loan period and of being unable to sell the collateral provided to it if the borrower defaults. - The Fund's shares are listed on one or more Stock Exchange(s).

Currency-hedged share class: our figures are computed on the issuer’s NAV, where the hedge is applied at the daily fixing. Comparison sites using the exchange price may show returns and volatility that differ by 1–2 points: on hedged classes the price-vs-NAV gap is structurally wider and grows with the length of the window. Not a data error — a measurement convention. Details in the methodology.

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: Invesco. 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

We do not publish a tracking difference for this share class — and it is not an oversight.

FAEU 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.
