iShares Diversified Commodity Swap UCITS ETF (DE)

iShares Diversified Commodity Swap UCITS ETF (DE) (the "Fund") is a passively managed exchange traded fund (ETF) that aims to track the performance of the Bloomberg CommoditySM (Total Return Index). In this regard, it aims to replicate the benchmark (Index). The Index measures the performance of broadly diversified commodity markets representing energy, agriculture, industrial metals, precious metals and livestock sectors. The Index reflects the total return on a fully collateralised position in futures contracts on physical commodities. The Index rebalances annually and is weighted based on liquidity of the futures contracts and production of the underlying commodities, subject to capping restrictions to maintain diversification. The index is not mapped directly by acquiring forwards that are included in the index, but indirectly via one or several swap agreements. This swaps the entire performance of stocks from a basket of stocks held by the Fund with the performance of the underlying index, so that, in economic terms, as a rule the performance of the underlying index is mapped. The price of a derivative changes on a daily basis depending on the value of the underlying reference asset(s) which in turn may affect the value of the investment. A change in the value of underlying reference assets can have a greater impact on the value of derivatives than if the assets were held directly since derivatives can be more sensitive to changes in the value of underlying reference assets. The relationship between the return on the investment, how it is impacted and the period for which you hold the investment is considered below (see "How long should I hold it and can I take my money out early?"). The depositary of the Fund is State Street Bank International GmbH. Further information about the Fund can be obtained from the latest annual report and half-yearly reports of the Fund.
