Investment Objectives

XEU seeks to provide long-term capital growth by replicating, to the extent possible, the performance of the MSCI Europe Investable Market Index, net of expenses. Under normal market conditions, XEU will primarily invest in securities of one or more iShares ETFs and/or equity securities issued by issuers located in European countries.

Investment Strategy

XEU's current principal investment strategy is to employ a Sampling Strategy. In addition to or as an alternative to this strategy, XEU may also invest by employing a Replicating Strategy, by investing in one or more iShares ETFs and/or through the use of derivatives. More information on these investment strategies and additional investment strategies that may be used by BlackRock Canada and/or BTC in managing this iShares Fund can be found under the heading Investment Strategies .
