Investment Objectives

XSUS seeks to provide long-term capital growth by replicating, to the extent possible, the performance, net of expenses, of an ESG-oriented Index selected at the discretion of BlackRock Canada. The ESG-oriented Index will generally emphasize issuers that have positive environmental, social and governance characteristics, as identified by the Index Provider, chosen from the securities included in its parent index .

Investment Strategy

XSUS's current principal investment strategy is to employ a Replicating Strategy. In addition to or as an alternative to this strategy, XSUS may also invest by employing a Sampling Strategy, by investing in one or more iShares ETFs and/or through the use of derivatives. It is expected that securities for the portfolio will be selected primarily from the Constituent Issuers.
