Description

The Invesco NASDAQ-100 Swap UCITS ETF Acc is designed to closely match the net total return performance of the NASDAQ-100 Index (its chosen benchmark), after accounting for fund expenses. The NASDAQ-100 Index itself is composed of the 100 largest non-financial U.S. and international corporations listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market, ranked by their market capitalization. These companies represent a broad spectrum of major industries, including technology (computer hardware and software), telecommunications, retail, wholesale trade, and biotechnology. Importantly, the index explicitly excludes financial firms, such as investment companies. To achieve its objective, the fund primarily invests in a diverse portfolio of equities. While this underlying basket typically generates the majority of the fund's returns, it usually does not consist of the exact same securities found in the NASDAQ-100 Index. The ETF also employs unfunded swap agreements. Under these contracts, one or more approved financial counterparties agree to exchange with the fund any difference between the returns generated by the fund's equity basket and the actual performance of the NASDAQ-100 Index. This swap-based strategy is intended to deliver more precise and consistent tracking of the Reference Index than would generally be possible through simply holding the index's components directly (physical replication). Although the fund's investment aim is to replicate the net total return of the index, the underlying swaps are tied to the gross total return index. Consequently, the ETF's performance may at times exceed the return of the net index. This is a passively managed ETF. Investing in this fund means acquiring units in an index-tracking fund, not direct ownership of the specific underlying assets held by the fund.
