NT Global Bond 1-5 Years Index Fund A GBP Hedged Accumulating

The investment objective of the Fund is to track the risk and return characteristics of the Solactive Global All Bond 1-5 Years Index (the “Index”). The Fund invests primarily in freely transferable Debt and Debt Related Securities including investment grade bonds that are constituents of the Index. The Fund may also invest in investment grade bonds that are not included in the Index that are deemed by the Investment Manager to exhibit similar characteristics to securities in the Index and that have a similar risk profile. Target Market: This Fund is appropriate for investors who plan to invest over the short to medium term; and are looking for a passively managed investment in the relevant market(s). Recommendation: This Fund is appropriate for investors who plan to withdraw their money within a 1-5 year timeframe. The Fund is an index tracking Fund and seeks to track the risk and return of the Index by buying a representative subset of the bonds in the index. This means it may not hold all the same assets as the Index or hold assets in the same proportion as the Index, and the fund may not match the Index performance. The Solactive Global All Bond 1-5 Years Index measures the performance of worldwide bonds with a maturity of 1-5 years issued by central government, government-related, corporates and securitised debt securities with a fixed rate. The Manager considers that the Fund meets the criteria in Article 6 of the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (Regulation EU/2019/2088) and accordingly the investments underlying the Fund do not take into account the EU criteria for environmentally sustainable economic activities. More information on this product's sustainability factors can be found in the Supplement and on our website at www.northerntrust.com/europe/- what-we-do/investment-management/sustainable-finance-regulation For efficient portfolio management purposes, the Fund may invest in derivatives and other financially linked instruments (such as currency forwards and exchange traded futures) to reduce risk, minimise costs or generate additional capital or income. A derivative is a financial contract whose value is derived from other assets. You can buy or sell shares daily (on each business day of the Fund). Instructions must be received by the Fund's administrator before 12.00pm (Irish time) on the relevant dealing day. The base currency of the fund is U.S. Dollar. Shares will be accumulating shares (i.e. income will be included in the value). This share class is hedged. The Fund will enter into certain currencyrelated transactions in order to seek to hedge out currency risk relevant to the Class. The hedging strategy may not completely eliminate currency risk and, therefore, may affect the performance of your shares.
