iShares plc Core MSCI EM IMI UCITS ETF USD (Acc) (EIMI)

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 MSCI Emerging Markets Investable Market Index (IMI), the Fund’s benchmark index. The Share Class, via the Fund, aims to invest so far as possible and practicable in the equity securities (e.g. shares) that make up the benchmark index. The benchmark index measures the performance of large, mid and small-cap sectors (i.e. companies with large, mid and small market capitalisation) within the equity markets in emerging markets which comply with MSCI’s size, liquidity and free float criteria. Companies are included in the benchmark index based on the proportion of their shares in issue that are available for purchase by international investors. Securities that are liquid means that they can be easily bought or sold in the market in normal market conditions. The Fund uses optimising techniques to achieve a similar return to its benchmark index. In order to gain exposure to certain securities in emerging markets that make up its benchmark index, the Fund may invest in American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs). ADRs and GDRs are investments issued by financial institutions which give exposure to underlying equity securities.
