Investment Objectives

The ETF seeks to replicate, to the extent possible, the performance of the Solactive Equal Weight Canada Banks Index (Total Return), net of expenses. The Solactive Equal Weight Canada Banks Index (Total Return) is an equal weight index of equity securities of diversified Canadian banks. The ETF uses derivatives, such as a swap agreement or multiple swap agreements, to obtain exposure to its underlying index without investing directly in the securities that make up its underlying index.

Investment Strategy

In order to achieve their investment objectives and obtain direct or indirect exposure to securities of their Underlying Index’s Constituent Issuers, the Index ETFs may invest in and hold the securities of Constituent Issuers in substantially the same proportion as they are reflected in the applicable Underlying Index, or may invest in and hold index participation units of exchange traded funds or use derivatives
