| Investment Objective: |
The SPDR Portfolio Europe ETF seeks to provide investment results that, before fees and expenses, correspond generally to the total return performance of the STOXX Europe Total Market Index (the "Index"). The STOXX Europe Total Market Index is a free-float market capitalization weighted index designed to provide a broad representation of publicly traded Western European companies. The Index represents approximately the top 95% of the free-float market capitalization of each of the following European countries: Austria, Belgium, Poland, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. The STOXX Europe Total Market Index reflects linked performance returns of both the STOXX Europe Total Market Index and the STOXX Europe 50 Index. The index returns are reflective of the STOXX Europe 50 Index from fund inception until 09/23/2019 and of the STOXX Europe Total Market Index effective 09/23/2019. |
