L&G Global Small Cap Equity Index Fund - Z GBP ACC

The investment objective of the Fund is to provide investors with a return in line with the performance of the developed world small cap equity market as represented by the Index. The Fund will aim to track the Index using a sampling approach which will attempt to ensure the Fund has similar characteristics as the Index whilst not necessarily holding all of the constituents of the Index. The Fund uses index 'sampling' techniques to select securities as it could be expensive and inefficient to buy and sell all of the securities held in the Index. The Fund may select securities which provide similar exposure or risk characteristics to constituents of the Index even if such securities are not themselves constituents of the Index. The Fund selects a representative sample of securities that approximate the full Index in terms of key risk factors and other characteristics. These factors include industry weights, country weights, market capitalisation and other financial characteristics of Index constituents. Investors should note there is the risk that while the Fund is expected to track the Index as closely as possible, it typically will not match exactly the performance of the targeted Index.
