STOXX Global Gold Miners NR USD

The Index is designed to provide exposure to global companies which are actively engaged in the areas of gold mining. Gold mining covers exploration drilling, geological assessment, financing, development, extraction, initial refinement, and delivery of gold ore. The constituents of the Index are exclusively companies that generate at least 50 per cent of their revenues from gold production. The Index seeks to exclude companies which are (i) involved in the manufacturing of controversial weapons, (ii) persistent violators of the UN Global Compact, and/or (iii) pure coal mining companies. Such exclusions are determined by reference to the “Future World Protection List” (“FWPL”) published by Legal & General Investment Management Limited which is available at https://www.lgim.com/uk/en/capabilities/corporate-governance/assessing-companies-esg/.

The selection of the Index constituents is carried out by Stoxx Ltd. (the “Index Administrator”) based on gold production, market capitalisation and average daily trading volume.

    Key risks

    The value of an investment and any income taken from it is not guaranteed and can go down as well as up. You may not get back the amount you originally invested.

    Past performance is not a guide to the future.

    An investment in the ETF involves a significant degree of risk. Any decision to invest should be based on the information contained in the relevant prospectus. Prospective investors should obtain their own independent accounting, tax and legal advice and should consult their own professional advisers to ascertain the suitability of the ETF as an investment.

    An investment in the ETF may expose investors to specific risks associated with the gold mining industry, including government policies and regulation, economic forces and the price of gold bullion. The price of gold bullion may fluctuate substantially over short periods of time and so the price of shares in the ETF may be more volatile than the price of gold itself or other types of investments.

    If a swap counterparty is no longer willing or able to continue entering into swaps with the ETF, the ETF will not be able to continue tracking the Index.

    If a swap counterparty increases the cost of entering into swaps with the ETF, the ETF’s performance will be negatively impacted.

    Third party service providers (such as swap counterparties or the ETF’s depositary) may go bankrupt and fail to pay money due to the ETF or return property belonging to the ETF.

    If the Index provider stops calculating the Index or if the ETF’s license to track the Index is terminated, the ETF may have to be closed.

    It may not always be possible to buy and sell ETF shares on a stock exchange or at prices closely reflecting the NAV.

    There is no capital guarantee or protection on the value of the ETF. Investors can lose all the capital invested in the ETF.

    Please refer to the “Risk Factors” section of the Issuer’s Prospectus and the Fund Supplement.

    For more information, please refer to the key investor information document.
