Fund size (GBP) £11.3B
The Fund seeks to track performance of the MSCI World Index (the "Index"). The Index is designed to measure the performance of mid and large capitalisation companies which are listed on worldwide markets. The Fund will seek to hold all of the shares of the Index, in the same proportions as the Index, so that essentially the portfolio of the Fund will be a near mirror image of the Index. The Fund may, for the purpose of reducing risk, reducing costs or generating additional capital or income, use derivative instruments. The use of derivative instruments may multiply the gains or losses made by the Fund on given investment or on its investments generally. Currency hedged share classes may also be available in the Fund. Fund income is not paid out, but instead will be reinvested. Investors other than authorized participants may not subscribe for shares directly with UBS (Irl) ETF plc, but may purchase and sell shares, through an intermediary, on one of the stock exchanges listed for the share class on the website www.ubs.com/etf. In exceptional circumstances, direct redemptions with UBS (Irl) ETF plc, are however possible on each dealing day (as set out in the relevant supplement to the prospectus). Authorized participants may subscribe and redeem shares with the UBS (Irl) ETF plc under the conditions detailed in the relevant authorized participant agreement.
