iShares MSCI World Momentum Factor Advanced UCITS ETF USD (Acc)

The Share Class is a share class of a Fund which 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 MSCI World Momentum Advanced Select Index, the Fund's benchmark index (Index). The Share Class, via the Fund is passively managed and aims to invest so far as possible and practicable in equity securities (e.g. shares) that make up the Index. The Index aims to reflect the performance of a sub-set of equity securities within the MSCI World Index (Parent Index) with targeted exposure to the momentum factor, subject to certain optimisation constraints, including carbon reduction and environmental, social and governance ("ESG") score improvement relative to the Parent Index. Companies involved in controversial and nuclear weapons, civilian firearms, thermal coal, tobacco or oil sands, classified as violating the United Nations Global Compact principles, or with a 'Red' MSCI ESG Controversies score, are excluded. The Fund may have limited exposure to securities considered not to meet these ESG criteria. The remaining companies are weighted using an optimisation methodology which seeks to maximise the exposure of the Index to the momentum factor, and to improve the ESG score and reduce carbon exposure compared to the Parent Index. The momentum factor is assessed using a momentum score based on the recent price performance of a security, while also reflecting its corresponding volatility. Securities within the Parent Index that have large fluctuations in price (volatility) may not form part of the Index. The Fund adopts a binding and significant ESG optimisation approach to sustainable investing i.e. the Fund will integrate ESG information into investment processes to optimise exposure to issuers to achieve a higher ESG rating. The Fund intends to replicate the Index by holding the equity securities, which make up the Index, in similar proportions to it. The Fund may use finan
