Investment Objectives

The iShares Canadian Equity Funds seek to provide long-term capital growth by replicating, to the extent possible, the performance of the applicable Canadian Equity Fund Index, net of expenses.

Investment Strategy

The investment strategy of each iShares Canadian Equity Fund, other than XVX, is to invest primarily in and hold the Index Securities of the applicable Canadian Equity Fund Index in substantially the same proportion as they are reflected in the applicable Canadian Equity Fund Index.
