1The ETNs’ value is determined at 4.00 pm CET of each business day, and represents the value of one note; it is calculated by taking the total assets linked to the ETN, subtracting total liabilities, and dividing by the total number of notes outstanding. The value is not necessarily the same as the ETNs’ intraday trading price. Investors should not expect to buy or sell the ETN at the determined value.

2The date the ETN was launched prior to quotation on the stock exchange.

*This might be seen differently by local regulators in single EU member states and the fund manager is recommended to verify this.

Brokerage or transaction fees will apply. Performance data for the Dutch domiciled ETFs include income distributions gross of Dutch withholding tax, net of fees and assume that the Dutch dividend withholding tax levied from the dividend payment of the ETF will be deducted or reclaimed with the Dutch tax authority and is reinvested. Different investor types and investors from other jurisdictions may not be able to achieve the same level of performance due to their tax status and local tax rules. Brokerage or transaction fees will apply. The Dutch domiciled ETFs use a gross reinvestment index.
