State Street SPDR Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond UCITS ETF

Objectives Investment objective The objective of the Fund is to track the performance of the U.S. dollar-denominated bond market for fixed-rate, taxable, investment grade (high quality) securities. The Fund seeks to track the performance of the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (the "Index") as closely as possible. The Fund is an index tracking fund (also known as a passively managed fund). Investment policies The Fund invests primarily in securities included in the Index. These securities include investment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate debt securities (that is, contracts to repay borrowed money which pay fixed interest at fixed times) issued by the U.S. government and corporations and certain types of asset-backed securities (that is, a security whose value and income payments are derived from and backed by a specified pool of underlying assets). As it may be difficult to purchase all securities in the Index efficiently, in seeking to track the performance of the Index the Fund will use a stratified sampling strategy to build a representative portfolio. Consequently, the Fund will typically hold only a subset of the securities included in the Index. The Fund may use financial derivative instruments (that is, financial contracts whose prices are dependent on one or more underlying assets) in order to manage the portfolio efficiently. Save in exceptional circumstances, the Fund will generally only issue and redeem shares to certain institutional investors. However, shares of the Fund may be purchased or sold through brokers on one or more stock exchanges. The Fund trades on these stock exchanges at market prices which may fluctuate throughout the day. Market prices may be greater or less than the daily net asset value of the Fund. The Fund's maximum exposure to securities lending as a percentage of its Net Asset Value will not exceed 70%. The Shares of the USD Class are issued in U.S. Dollar. Index Source: The Index is the intellectual property of th
