DBXT MSCI SINGAPORE IM ETF 10
Company Introduction
The MSCI Singapore Investable Market Total Return Net Index (the “Index”) is a
free float-adjusted market capitalisation weighted index reflecting the
performance of large, mid, and small capitalisation companies in Singapore.
According to the MSCI index methodology the Index is designed to measure the
performance of equity securities in the top 99% of the free float-adjusted
market capitalisation of the equity securities listed on stock exchanges in
Singapore.
The Index is calculated in US Dollars on an end of day basis.
The Index is a total return net index. A total return net index calculates the
performance of the index constituents on the basis that any dividends or
distributions are reinvested after the deduction of any taxes that may apply.
The Index is reviewed and rebalanced on a quarterly basis and may also be
rebalanced at other times in order to reflect corporate activity such as
mergers and acquisitions.
The Index is calculated and maintained by MSCI Inc.
This section is a brief overview of the Index. It contains a summary of the
principal features of the Index and is not a complete description of the Index.
For further information on the Index, investors are invited to refer to the
relevant section(s) of the Singapore prospectus.
