HSBC Global Funds ICAV - US Corporate Bond UCITS ETF ETFC USD Accumulation

Investment Objective: The Fund aims to provide income and capital growth. Investment Policy: The Fund tracks as closely as possible the performance of the Bloomberg US Corporate Bond Index (total return) (the Index). The Index is a rules-based benchmark that tracks the investment grade, fixed-rate, taxable corporate bond market. It includes US Dollar (USD) denominated securities publicly issued by US and non-US industrial, utility and financial issuers. The currency of the Index is USD and returns are unhedged. The Index is based on the Bloomberg Index Methodology which applies an eligibility criteria based on a set of fundamental core design principles which are designed to accurately and comprehensively measure the underlying Index constituents. The Index is measured by total return, is market value weighted and rebalanced monthly. The Fund is passively managed and may invest in corporate investment grade bonds (developed and emerging markets), and other bonds all of which are Index constituents. The credit ratings of the Fund’s underlying investments may vary from time to time. However, their average credit rating is expected to be inline with that of the Index. The Fund will utilise an investment technique called optimisation which seeks to minimise the difference in return between the Fund and the Index. The Fund will not necessarily invest in every constituent of the Index, or invest proportionally to each constituents’ Index weight. The Fund will not invest more than 10% of its assets in other funds, including HSBC funds. The Fund may also invest in derivative for efficient portfolio management purposes (such as to manage risk and costs, or to generate additional capital or income). The Fund may enter into securities lending transactions for up to 30% of its assets. However, this is not expected to exceed 25%. The reference currency of the Fund is USD. The reference currency of this share class is USD. Income is reinvested. Authorised Participants only may deal in the Fund’s ETF Shares directly with the UCITS.
