About FLKR
Under normal market conditions,the Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in the component securities of the FTSE South Korea CappedIndex and in depositary receipts representing such securities. The FTSE South Korea Capped Index is afree float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index maintained and calculated by FTSE Russell witha capping methodology applied quarterly to issuer weights so that no single issuer of a component exceeds25% of the FTSE South Korea Capped Index weight, and all issuers with weights above 5% do not cumulativelyexceed 50% of the FTSE South Korea Capped Index’s weight. The FTSE South Korea Capped Index isbased on the FTSE South Korea Index and is designed to measure the performance of South Korean large-and mid-capitalization stocks. FTSE Russell determines eligible securities for the FTSE South Korea CappedIndex based on measures such as the company’s place of incorporation, listing country, investorprotection regulations present in the country of incorporation, tax domicile, location of headquarters/factorsof production and currency of denomination. As of May 31, 2025, the FTSE South Korea Capped Index wascomprised of 147 securities with capitalizations ranging from $421 million to $273.11 billion.TheFund, using a “passive” or indexing investment approach, seeks investment results that closelycorrespond, before fees and expenses, to the performance of the FTSE South Korea Capped Index. The Fundmay use either a replication strategy or representative sampling strategy. Under a replication strategy,the Fund will replicate the component securities of the FTSE South Korea Capped Index as closely as possible(i.e., invest in all of the component securities in their respective weightings in the FTSE South KoreaCapped Index). However, under various circumstances, it may not be possible or practicable to replicatethe FTSE South Korea Capped Index. In these circumstances, the Fund may use a “representative sampling”strategy whereby the Fund would invest in what it believes to be a representative sample of the componentsecurities of the FTSE South Korea Capped Index, but may not track the FTSE South Korea Capped Indexwith the same degree of accuracy as would an investment vehicle replicating the entire FTSE South KoreaCapped Index. Under the representative sampling technique, theinvestment manager will select securities that collectively have an investment profile similar to thatof the FTSE South Korea Capped Index, including securities that resemble those included in the FTSE SouthKorea Capped Index in terms of risk factors, performance attributes and other characteristics, such asmarket capitalization and industry weightings.The Fund may invest in equity futures (including equity indexfutures) and equity total return swaps to provide additional opportunities to add value and better trackthe performance of the Fund’s Underlying Index, such as to equitize cash and accrued income, simulateinvestments in the Underlying Index, facilitate trading or minimize transaction costs.The Fund may enter intoforeign currency forward contracts and/or currency futures contracts to provide the Fund with additionalopportunities to add value and better track the performance of the Fund’s Underlying Index, suchas by facilitating local securities settlements or protecting against currency exposure in connectionwith distributions to Fund shareholders.The Fund intends to be diversified in approximately the sameproportion as the FTSE South Korea Capped Index is diversified. The Fund may become “non-diversified,”as defined in the 1940 Act, solely as a result of a change in relative market capitalization or indexweighting of one or more constituents of the FTSE South Korea Capped Index. A “non-diversified”fund generally invests a greater proportion of its assets in the securities of one or more issuers andinvests overall in a smaller number of issuers than a diversified fund. Shareholder approval will notbe sought if the Fund becomes non-diversified due solely to a change in the relative market capitalizationor index weighting of one or more constituents of the FTSE South Korea Capped Index.The Fund will concentrateits investments (i.e., hold 25% or more of its net assets) in a particular industry or group of industriesto approximately the same extent that the FTSE South Korea Capped Index is concentrated. As of May 31,2025, the FTSE South Korea Capped Index was concentrated in the information technology sector.
