BlackRock Corporate Bond 1-10 Year Fund D Acc

The aim of the Fund is to provide a return on investor's investment (generated through an increase in the value of the assets held by the Fund and/or income received from those assets) by tracking closely the performance of a composite benchmark (i.e. a benchmark comprised of two or more other benchmarks) comprising the Bank of America Merrill Lynch Sterling Corporate Securities 1-5 Year Index and the Bank of America Merrill Lynch Sterling Corporate Securities 5-10 Year Index (the “Benchmark Index”). In seeking to achieve its investment objective, the Fund will invest directly into the fixed income securities (i.e. bonds) in the Benchmark Index and at times invest indirectly via other fixed income-related investments (i.e. other investments whose value is related to debt) giving exposure to such fixed income securities, or in other fixed income securities not in the Index.
