BlackRock Advantage Asia ex Japan Equity D Cap $

The Fund aims to achieve long-term capital growth on your investment. The Fund seeks to gain at least 70% of its investment exposure to equity securities (e.g. shares) of companies in Asia (excluding Japan). The Fund may invest in equities and equity-related securities, fixed income (FI) securities (such as bonds), money market instruments (MMIs) (debt securities with short-term maturities), deposits and cash. The FI securities and MMIs may be issued by governments, government agencies, companies and supranationals and will be investment grade (i.e. meet a specified level of credit worthiness) at the time of purchase. The Fund uses quantitative (i.e. mathematical or statistical) models to achieve a rule based approach to select stocks, based on their expected contribution to portfolio returns. The Fund may invest in American Depository Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs), listed or traded on stock exchanges and regulated markets outside Asia. ADRs and GDRs are investments issued by financial institutions which give exposure to underlying equity securities. The investment manager (IM) will use financial derivative instruments (FDIs) (including synthetic short positions where the Fund uses an FDI to benefit from the sale of an asset it does not physically own with the aim of buying it later at a lower price to secure a profit). The Fund will take into account environment, social and governance criteria when selecting investments as disclosed in the prospectus. For further details please refer to the prospectus and the BlackRock website at www.blackrock.com/baselinescreens. The Fund may obtain indirect exposure (through, including but not limited to, FDIs) to securities which may not satisfy these ESG criteria. The Fund is actively managed and the IM has discretion to select the Fund's investments. The IM will refer to the MSCI AC Asia ex Japan 10/40 Index (the Index) when constructing the Fund's portfolio and for risk management purposes. The Fund wi
