The fund’s objective — in the issuer’s words
The Fund is passively managed and will take proportionate exposure on the components of the Solactive Global Multilateral Development Bank Bond USD 25% Issuer Capped 1-5 Index (Total Return) using a stratified approach (stratified sampling strategy) by investing in a representative sample of components of the index selected by the portfolio manager using a 'portfolio optimisation' technique. The proportionate exposure by the Fund to the component securities will be substantially achieved either through direct investment or through the use of derivatives or through a combination of both techniques. The Fund may further hold securities which are not comprised in its Index if the portfolio manager believes this to be appropriate considering the sub-fund's investment objective and the investment restrictions or other factors. The Fund will invest its net assets predominantly in bonds, transferable securities, money market instruments, units of undertakings for collective investment, deposits with credit institutions, structured notes listed or dealt in on a regulated market and other assets eligible under the prospectus. This sub-fund has a sustainable investment objective. The Fund will not enter into any securities lending. The return of the fund depends mainly on the performance of the tracked index. Fund income is not paid out, but instead will be reinvested.

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: UBS. 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 — issuer-declared
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.

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.
