iShares plc MSCI Korea UCITS ETF Acc (CSKR)

The Fund aims to achieve a return on your investment which reflects the return of the MSCI Korea Index Net USD, the Fund’s benchmark index. 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 and mid-market capitalisation companies in the South Korean equity market which comply with MSCI's size, liquidity, and free-float criteria. Companies are included in the benchmark index based on a free float – adjusted market capitalisation weighted basis. Free float – adjusted market capitalisation is the share price of the company multiplied by the number of shares available to international investors. Securities that are liquid means that they can be easily bought or sold in the market in normal market conditions. The benchmark index is a net total return index which means that the net dividends of the constituents of the benchmark index are reinvested after the deduction of any taxes that may apply. The Fund intends to replicate the benchmark index by holding the equity securities which make up the benchmark index, in similar proportions to it. The investment manager may use financial derivative instruments (FDIs) (i.e. investments the prices of which are based on one or more underlying assets) to help achieve the Fund’s investment objectives. FDIs may be used for direct investment purposes. Your shares will be accumulating shares (i.e. income will be included in their value).
