Investment Objective

The investment seeks to track the investment results of a broad-based equity index with exposure to Kuwait, as defined by the index provider. The fund seeks to track the investment results of the MSCI All Kuwait Select Size Liquidity Capped Index (the “underlying index”), which is designed to measure the performance of the Kuwait equity universe. The underlying index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index with a capping methodology applied to avoid concentration. BFA uses a representative sampling indexing strategy to manage the fund. It may or may not hold all of the securities in the underlying index. The fund is non-diversified.
