Performance as of 30 September 2019
The figures shown relate to past performance. Past performance may or may not sustain in future and should not be used as a basis for comparison with other investments. As of 30 September
2019. Source: BlackRock, Bloomberg. Launch date: 3 January 1997 ‘A2’ shares. Basis: NAV prices, with gross dividends reinvested, net of expenses. This information is for illustrative purposes only
based on internal data and does not take account of hedging transaction costs or subscription and redemption activity within the fund. It is designed to illustrate the indicative performance that
may have been achieved by placing 3-month forward contracts the fund assets to protect euro investors from fluctuations in dollar/euro exchange rates. This process is non-discretionary and is not
designed to enhance returns. Advantages include (1) the convenience of dealing in currencies other than a fund’s base currency and (2) returns aligned with those of the equivalent base currency
share class, adjusted for the relevant interest rate differential. The hedged share class return = base currency return +/- interest rate differential between the base currency and hedged share class
currency. Additional factors that will impact returns, albeit to a smaller extent, include short term interest rate changes, timing of market value hedge adjustments, the hedging range, and
transaction costs. The fund’s U.S. dollar/euro hedge will be applied through the use of forward contracts which will be rolled or adjusted as required.
