The aim is for the investment to reflect the performance of the STOXX { {®}} Europe 600 Index (Index) which is designed to reflect the performance of shares of 600 companies across 18 European countries. The Index contains shares of large, medium and small companies, based on the combined value of a company’s readily available shares compared to other companies. A company’s weighting in the Index depends on its relative size but cannot exceed 20% of the Index at each quarterly review. The Index composition is reviewed at least quarterly. The Index is calculated on a total return net basis which means that all dividends and distributions by the companies are reinvested in the shares after tax. To achieve the aim, the Fund will attempt to replicate the Index by buying a substantial number of the shares in the Index in the same proportion as the Index as determined by the Sub-Portfolio Manager of the Fund which is Deutsche Asset Management (UK) Limited.
