The objective of the Fund is to track the performance of the Euro-denominated corporate bond market for fixed-rate, investment grade (high quality) securities. The Fund seeks to track the performance of the Bloomberg Euro Corporate Bond Index (the Index) as closely as possible. The Fund invests primarily in securities included in the Index. These securities will include fixed rate, investment grade bonds (denominated in Euro) issued by industrial, utility and financial companies. In seeking to track the performance of the Index the Fund will use a stratified sampling strategy to build a representative portfolio. Consequently, the Fund will typically hold only a subset of the securities included in the Index.
