State Street Gl. HY Bond Screened Index I Cap $

Objectives Investment objective The objective of the Fund is to track the performance of the fixed rate global high yield corporate bond market. The Fund is an index tracking fund (also known as a passively managed fund). Investment policies The investment policy of the Fund is to track the performance of the ICE BofA Global High Yield Constrained Index (or any other index determined by the Directors from time to time to track substantially the same market as the Index) as closely as possible, seeking to minimise as far as possible the tracking difference between the Fund's performance and that of the Index while screening out securities based on an assessment of their adherence to certain ESG criteria. The Fund promotes environmental or social characteristics in accordance with SFDR Article 8. These environmental and social characteristics are detailed in the SFDR Annex of the Fund's Supplement. The Investment Manager applies a negative and norms-based screen to the Fund to screen out securities based on an assessment of their adherence to ESG criteria including securities of companies identified as being non-compliant with UNGC Principles (relating to environmental protection, human rights, labour standards, anticorruption), securities of companies associated with Severe ESG Controversies, thermal coal, arctic oil & gas exploration, oil sands extraction civilian firearms, controversial weapons and tobacco. By applying the relevant negative and norms-based screen, the Investment Manager deems the Fund's sustainable investments not to cause significant harm to any environmental or social sustainable investment objective.

The Index limits issuer exposure to a maximum of 2% and redistributes the excess market value Index-wide on a pro-rata basis.
