1. Overview of Changes
On 2 August 2023 MSCI Limited ("MSCI"), the Index Administrator
of each Reference Index of the Funds announced that additional
exclusion criteria will be added to the existing Environmental,
Social and Governance exclusion criteria (the "ESG Exclusion
Criteria") which is used to screen companies with business
activities that are not considered aligned with the overall
objective of contributing to the 17 United Nations Sustainable
Development Goals.
These additions to the ESG Exclusion Criteria will take effect
before the next rescheduled rebalancing of the Reference Indices on
1 September 2023 and will result in the exclusion of securities
which:
-- are classified by MSCI in their Business Involvement Screening Research
as breaching certain thresholds in adult entertainment, alcohol, gambling,
nuclear power, fossil fuel reserves ownership, and unconventional oil &
gas extraction; and
-- have an insufficient MSCI ESG Controversies Score related to certain
environmental controversies.
(together the "Additional ESG Exclusion Criteria").
For the sake of clarity, the Additional ESG Exclusion Criteria
to be used by the Reference Indices will have no impact on the
Fund's Investment Objective, Investment Policy, risk profile or
fees. There is no material impact to the primary or secondary
market trading in the Shares of the Funds expected as a result of
the Additional ESG Exclusion Criteria used by the Reference
Indices.
The complete text of the announcement made by the Index
Administrator on 2 August 2023 is available at:
