iShares L. Index-Linked Gilts UCITS ETF GBP (Dist)

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 Bloomberg UK Government Inflation-Linked Bond 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 the fixed income (FI) securities (such as bonds) that make up the Index. The Index measures the performance of United Kingdom (UK) domestic Government index-linked bonds. It consists of FI securities denominated in Sterling that pay coupon (i.e. interest) and principal in Sterling, and are issued by the UK Government. The FI securities must be capital-indexed and linked to an eligible inflation index (i.e. their principal value is protected against inflation) and have a minimum remaining time to maturity of one year and a minimum amount outstanding of L.300 million.They will, at the time of inclusion in the Index, be investment grade (i.e. meet a specified level of creditworthiness) so long as the UK maintains its investment grade credit rating. The Fund uses optimising techniques to achieve a similar return to its Index. These may include the strategic selection of certain securities that make up the Index or other FI 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). FDIs may be used for direct investment purposes. The Fund may also engage in short-term secured lending of its investments to certain eligible third parties to generate additional income to off-set the costs of the Fund. The price of fixed income securities may be affected by changing interest rates which in turn may affect the value of your investment. Fixed income securities prices move inversely to interest rates.
