Description

The Invesco MSCI Europe ex-UK UCITS ETF Acc aims to provide the net total return performance of the MSCI Europe ex-UK Index (the "Reference Index"), less the impact of fees.The Reference Index is designed to measure equity market performance across European developed markets excluding the UK. It captures large and mid cap representation across these markets, and covers approximately 85% of the free float-adjusted market capitalisation in each country.The fund aims to achieve its objective by holding a basket of equities, which typically delivers most of the fund’s return but ordinarily would not be the same as those in the reference index. The fund will also use unfunded swaps, which are contracts whereby one or more approved counterparties agrees to exchange with the fund any difference between the returns of the index and the basket of equities held. The aim is to achieve a closer and more consistent performance relative to the index than would generally be possible through physical replication alone.While the investment objective of the fund is to replicate the net total return index, the swaps entered into by the fund reference an enhanced Withholding Tax version of the index. As a result the performance before fees of the ETF is likely to exceed the return of the standard net return index.This ETF is passively managed. An investment in this fund is an acquisition of units in a passively managed, index tracking fund rather than in the underlying assets owned by the fund.
