The investment objective of the Fund is to track both the upward and the downward evolution of the MSCI EMU Net Return Index (the Index) denominated in EUR and representative of large-cap and mid-cap companies listed on developed markets in the European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU), while minimizing the volatility of the difference between the return of the Sub-Fund and the return of the Index. The Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the performance of the large and mid cap segments across the developed market countries in the EMU.
