ETF stands for 'Exchange Traded Fund'. An ETF is an investment fund giving access to a portfolio of company shares, bonds or other investments, such as commodities or property. Simple, diversified, sustainable A suite of products offering access to a fully diversified portfolio in a single trade. All three portfolios are built using ESG products where available and are managed to a risk budget. By explicitly incorporating ESG products, the investment process seeks to limit risks arising from climate change, whilst aiming to benefit from investments with higher ESG scores. At least 80% of the fund’s assets will be invested in funds tracking indices that either exclude certain investments based on ESG-related characteristics or are comprised of government bond issuers with an ESG sovereign rating of BB* or higher.

The ESG Ratings range from leader (AAA, AA), average (A, BBB, BB) to laggard (B, CCC). For further details regarding MSCI's methodology, see https://www.msci.com/esg-fund-ratings Capital at risk. The value of investments and the income from them can fall as well as rise and are not guaranteed. Investors may not get back the amount originally invested. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of current or future results and should not be the sole factor of consideration when selecting a product or strategy. Changes in the rates of exchange between currencies may cause the value of investments to diminish or increase. Fluctuation may be particularly marked in the case of a higher volatility fund and the value of an investment may fall suddenly and substantially. Levels and basis of taxation may change from time to time.

Credit Risk The issuer of a financial asset held within the Fund may not pay income or repay capital to the Fund when due. Equity Risk The value of equities and equity-related securities can be affected by daily stock market movements. Other influential factors include political, economic news, company earnings and significant corporate events. Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Risk The benchmark index only excludes companies engaging in certain activities inconsistent with ESG criteria if such activities exceed the thresholds determined by the index provider. Investors should therefore make a personal ethical assessment of the benchmark index’s ESG screening prior to investing in the Fund. Such ESG screening may adversely affect the value of the Fund’s investments compared to a fund without such screening. Liquidity Risk Lower liquidity means there are insufficient buyers or sellers to allow the Fund to sell or buy investments readily. Commodity Swaps Risk The prices of commodities tend to experience greater variations than other asset classes (e.g. equities or fixed income securities). Investments in commodities are therefore potentially riskier than other types of investments.
