XTR.II EUROZ.GOV.BD 1D

The aim is for the investment to reflect the performance of the IBOXX € SOVEREIGNS EUROZONE { {®}} index (Index). The Index reflects the performance of tradable debt (bonds) denominated in Euro or pre-Euro currencies issued by Eurozone-governments. The composition of the Index is rebalanced according to a pre-set methodology. For bonds to be included in the Index they must, on the relevant rebalancing date, have a remaining time to maturity of at least one year. The bonds must have a fixed rate of interest and must be part of an issue of debt which has at least €1 billion in principal outstanding. The Index is calculated on a total return basis, which means that amounts equivalent to interest payments on the bonds are reinvested in the Index. The Index is sponsored by Markit Indices Limited and reviewed and rebalanced monthly. The Fund will attempt to replicate the Index by buying a substantial number of the bonds in the Index in a similar proportion as the Index.
