The MSCI World Index was launched on Mar 31, 1986. Data prior to the launch date is back-tested data (i.e. calculations of how the index might have performed over that time
period had the index existed). There are frequently material differences between back-tested performance and actual results. Past performance -- whether actual or back-tested
-- is no indication or guarantee of future performance.

INDEX METHODOLOGY
The index is based on the MSCI Global Investable Indexes (GIMI) Methodology —a comprehensive and consistent approach to
index construction that allows for meaningful global views and cross regional comparisons across all market capitalization size,
sector and style segments and combinations. This methodology aims to provide exhaustive coverage of the relevant investment
opportunity set with a strong emphasis on index liquidity, investability and replicability. The index is reviewed quarterly—in February,
May, August and November—with the objective of reflecting change in the underlying equity markets in a timely manner, while
limiting undue index turnover. During the May and November semi-annual index reviews, the index is rebalanced and the large and
mid capitalization cutoff points are recalculated.

FACTOR BOX AND FaCS METHODOLOGY


MSCI FaCS is a standard method (MSCI FaCS Methodology) for evaluating and reporting the Factor characteristics of equity
portfolios. MSCI FaCS consists of Factor Groups (e.g. Value, Size, Momentum, Quality, Yield, and Volatility) that have been
extensively documented in academic literature and validated by MSCI Research as key drivers of risk and return in equity
portfolios. These Factor Groups are constructed by aggregating 16 factors (e.g. Book-to-Price, Earnings/Dividend Yields, LT
Reversal, Leverage, Earnings Variability/Quality, Beta) from the latest Barra global equity factor risk model, GEMLT, designed to
make fund comparisons transparent and intuitive for use. The MSCI Factor Box, which is powered by MSCI FaCS, provides a
visualization designed to easily compare absolute exposures of funds/indexes and their benchmarks along 6 Factor Groups that
have historically demonstrated excess market returns over the long run.
