Xtrackers MSCI Pacific ex Japan UCITS ETF 1C

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE: The aim is for your investment to reflect the performance of the MSCI Pacific ex Japan Select Screened Index (index). DESCRIPTION OF INDEX: The index is based on the MSCI Pacific ex Japan Index (the Parent Index), which is designed to reflect the performance of the shares of certain large and medium capitalisation companies from developed countries in the Pacific region (excluding Japan). In order to be eligible for inclusion in the index, companies must be eligible for inclusion in the Parent Index and must meet certain environmental, social and governance (ESG) screening criteria. ESG CRITERIA: Securities which breach certain ESG standards, as disclosed in the prospectus and/or supplement, are excluded. The index also includes a carbon emission reduction rule, whereby if having applied the above exclusions, the Greenhouse Gas ("GHG") intensity of the index has been insufficiently reduced compared to the Parent Index, constituents are excluded by descending order of GHG intensity until a relevant reduction threshold is achieved. The remaining securities are then weighted by their free-float adjusted market capitalisation and are also subject to certain weight adjustments such that certain sector weightings do not deviate by more than a certain percentage from the Parent Index weightings. INDEX REBALANCING, CALCULATION AND ADMINISTRATION: The index is administered by MSCI Limited. The index is calculated on a total return net basis which means that all dividends and distributions by the companies are reinvested in the shares after tax. The index is reviewed and rebalanced at least quarterly. INVESTMENT POLICY: To achieve the aim, the fund will attempt to replicate the index, before fees and expenses, by buying all or a substantial number of the securities in the index. The fund may employ techniques and instruments in order to manage risk, reduce costs and improve results. These techniques and instruments may include the use of financial contra
