iShares V plc (ICDU) S&P 500 Consumer Discretionary Sector UCITS ETF

The Share Class is a share class of a Fund which aims to achieve a return on your investment, through a combination of capital growth and income on the Fund’s assets, which reflects the return of the S&P 500 Capped 35/20 Consumer Discretionary Index, the Fund’s benchmark index (Index). The Share Class, via the Fund, invests in equity securities (e.g. shares) that, so far as possible and practicable, make up the Index. The Index measures the performance of stocks from the S&P 500 Index which are within the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS) consumer discretionary sector. The S&P 500 Index measures the performance of 500 stocks from top US companies in leading industries of the US economy which meet S&P’s size, liquidity and free-float criteria. The GICS consumer discretionary sector currently comprises industries that tend to be the most sensitive to economic cycles, including a manufacturing segment (such as automotive, household durable goods, textiles and apparel, and leisure equipment, among others), a services segment (such as hotels, restaurants and other leisure facilities, among others), and a consumer retailing segment (such as distributors, department stores, general merchandise stores, specialty retail stores, companies providing retail services primarily through the internet, through mail order, and TV home shopping and companies providing online marketplaces for consumer products and services, among others). The Index may not include and/or may not be limited to every category comprising the sector listed here. Companies are included in the Index on a free float-adjusted market capitalisation weighted basis. Free float-adjusted means that only shares available to international investors, rather than all of a company’s issued shares, are used to calculate the Index. The Index caps the weight of the largest companies at each rebalance to ensure index diversification. The weight of the largest group entity in the Index is capped at 33% and the remaining group entities at 19%. The Fund intends to replicate the Index by holding the equity securities, which make up the Index, in similar proportions to it. Your shares will be accumulating shares (i.e. income will be included in their value).
