iShares Core S&P 500 UCITS ETF USD (Dist)/  IE0031442068  /

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 S&P 500, the Fund"s benchmark index (Index). The Fund is passively managed and aims to invest so far as possible and practicable in the equity securities (e.g. shares) that make up the Index. The Index measures the performance of the 500 largest companies (i.e. companies with large market capitalisation) within the United States market, according to size, liquidity and free float criteria. Companies are included in the Index based on a free float market capitalisation weighted basis. Free float means that only shares available to international investors 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 available to international investors. Securities that are liquid means that they can be easily bought or sold in the market in normal market conditions. The Fund uses optimising techniques to achieve a similar return to the Index. These may include the strategic selection of certain securities that make up the Index or other securities which provide similar performance to certain constituent securities. These may also include the use of financial derivative instruments (FDIs) (i.e. investments the prices of which are based on one or more underlying assets).
