iShares MSCI Europe SRI 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, which reflects the return of the MSCI Europe SRI Select Reduced Fossil Fuel Index, (the "Index"). The Share Class, via the Fund, is passively managed and aims to invest in equity securities that make up the Index. The Index measures the performance of a sub-set of equity securities so far as possible and practicable, across developed European markets, which are part of the MSCI Europe Index ("Parent Index") and are issued by companies with higher Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG") ratings than sector peers within the Parent Index based on a series of exclusionary and ratings based criteria. Companies are excluded if they are involved in certain business lines/activities, as outlined in the Index description of the Fund in the Fund's Prospectus. Companies that are in violation of United Nations Global Compact principles or OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises are also excluded from the Index. The remaining companies are rated by the index provider based on their ability to manage ESG risks and opportunities and are given a MSCI ESG rating which determines their eligibility for inclusion. Companies are also excluded based on an MSCI ESG controversy score (very severe). The Fund adopts a best-in-class approach to sustainable investing, this means that it is expected that the Fund will invest in the best issuers from an ESG / Socially Responsible Investment ("SRI") perspective (based on the ESG or SRI criteria of the Index) within each relevant sector of activities covered by the Index. The Index targets a 25% representation from each Global Industry Classification Standard sector within the Index. Eligible companies in each sector are ranked by thecriteria as outlined in the Fund's prospectus. Eligible companies from each sector are then included in the Index in a specific order, as defined in the index m
