It is not marketing material. The information is required by law to help you understand the nature and the risks of investing in this fund. You are advised to read it so you can make an informed decisio n about whether to invest. The Fund’s base currency is USD. For Accumulating Shares, income will be automatically reinvested in the Fund and reflected in the NAV per share. Investors can buy and sell shares of the Fund on each business day. Business day means a day on which the New York Stock Exchange and London Stock Exchange are open for normal business. For more information about the investment policy and strategy of the Fund, please refer to the sections entitled “Investment Objective” an d “Investment Policy” in the Fund’s Supplement. The investment objective of the Fund is to provide investment results that closely correspond, before fees and expenses, generally to the price and yield performance of the Solactive Blockchain v2 Index (the “Index”). The Fund is passively managed. The Fu nd will aim to achieve its investment objective by attempting to track the performance of the Index by investing primarily in a portfolio of equity securities and derivatives that as far as possible and practicable consists of the component securities of the Index in similar proportions to their weightings in the Index and in American depositary receipts (“ADRs”) and global depositary receipts (“GDRs”) based on the securities in the Index. The Index is designed to provide exposure to companies that are pos itioned to benefit from further advances in the field of blockchain technology. A blockchain is a peer -to -peer shared, distributed ledger (or decentralized database) that facilitates the recording of transactions and tracking of assets without the need for the use of a central authority acting as a trusted intermediary (i.e., a bank). “Blockchain Companies” are those companies that derive at least 50% of their revenues, operating income, or assets from the following business activities; digital asset mining , blockchain & digital asset transactions, blockchain applications, blockchain & digital asset hardware and blockchain & digital asset integration. When not possible or practicable to continue to hold all of the component securities of the Index, the Fund may invest in depositary receipts relating either to components securities of the Index or to equity securities of the type referred to above; and financial derivative instruments (“FDIs”), namely, total return “unfunded” OTC swaps and exchange -traded equi ty futures for investment purposes. Concentration Risk: The Fund’s investments will be highly concentrated in Blockchain Companies. The lack of diversificat ion across the Fund’s portfolio may increase the losses suffered by the fund if Blockchain Companies as a group were to suffer a downturn. These companies are exposed to risks but are not limited to, by government regulations or economic conditions. Blockc hain technology is new and its uses are in many cases untested or unclear. Many Blockchain companies currently operate under less regulatory scrutiny than traditional financial services companies and banks, but there is significant risk that regulatory ove rsight could increase in the future. Higher levels of regulation could increase costs and adversely impact the current business models of some Blockchain companies. Associated Risks Related to Investing in Blockchain Companies: Blockchain companies may be adversely impacted by government regulations or economic conditions. Blockchain technology is new and its uses are in many cases untested or unclear. These companies may also have significant exposure to fluctuations in the spot prices of digital assets, p articularly to the extent that demand for a company’s hardware or services may increase as the spot price of digital assets increase. Blockchain companies typically face intense competition and potentially rapid product obsolescence. Market Risk: The risk that the market will go down in value, with the possibility that such changes will be sharp and unpredictable. Operational Risk (including safekeeping of assets): The Fund and its assets may experience material losses as a result of technology/system fail ures, human error, policy breaches, and/or incorrect valuation of units. Social, political and economic developments and laws differ between regions. Changes in these may impact the Fund such as any changes that may occur due to the U.K’s withdrawal from the EU (Brexit). Risks associated with the ability to track an index: Transaction costs and other fees and expenses to be borne by the Fund and exchange rate factors where the underlying equities are denominated in a different currency to the Base Currenc y or currency of any Class of Shares are likely to affect the ability of a Fund to track the performance of the Index. Liquidity Risk: The Fund may invest in securities which may, due to negative market conditions, become difficult to sell or may need to b e sold at an unfavourable price. This may affect the overall value of the Fund. For more information on risks, please see the sections entitled "Risk Factors" in the ICAV's prospectus and in the Fund's supplement to the ICAV's prospectus. Lower Risk Higher Risk Typically lower rewards Typically higher rewards 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 This indicator above is based on historical data and may not be a reliable indication of the future risk profile of the Fund. The risk category shown is not guaranteed and may change over time. The lowest category does not mean a risk -free investment. This Fund is in risk category 7 due to the range and frequency of price movements (i.e. the volatility) of the underlying investments referenced by the Fund which may not be a reliable indicator of the future risk profile of the share class. The Fund offers no capital guarantee or prote ction. The Fund may be subject to risks which are not included in the calculation of the risk -reward indicator. Key risk factors include: Currency Risk: Some of the Fund's investments will be denominated in currencies other than the Fund’s base currency ( USD) therefore investors may be affected by adverse movements of the denominated currency and the base currency. The Fund may attempt to use FDIs to hedge against negative currency movements, however there is no guarantee that any attempts at hedging will be successful. You may receive payments in a different currency, so the final return you will get depend on the exchange rate between the two currencies. This risk is not considered in the indicator shown above. Derivatives Risk: The Fund may invest in FDI s to hedge against risk and/or to increase return. There is no guarantee that the Fund’s use of derivatives for either purpose will be successful. Derivatives are subject to counterparty risk (including potential loss of instruments) and are highly sensiti ve to underlying price movements, interest rates and market volatility and therefore come with a greater risk. Equities Risk: The Fund may invest in equity securities which are subject to greater fluctuations than other assets. Factors which may affect the fluctuation including economic conditions, industry or company news. High volumes of trading may also see increased transaction costs. # Global X Blockchain UCITS ETF (the "Fund"), # A sub -fund of Global X ETFs ICAV (the "ICAV") USD Accumulating Share Class, IE000XAGSCY5 ## The Fund is managed by Global X Management Company (Europe) Limited (the "Manager"). # Objectives and Investment Policy # Risk and Reward Profile : DocID: KIID_IE000XAGSCY5_en_20250213_6_1_USD_Accumulating_Share_Cl_614874 There is insufficient data to produce a useful indication of past performance for the share class. > 267.7% > 17.6% > 265.7% > 17.4% > 0% > 50% > 100% > 150% > 200% > 250% > 300% > 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 > USD Accumulating Share Class Solactive Blockchain v2 Index (Benchmark) The entry and exit charges shown are maximum figures.
