However, this document provides you with key information about this investment product. It is not marketing material. The information was required by law to help you understand the nature, risks, costs, potential gains and losses of this product and to help you compare it with other products. Other documents are also available to help you understand the potential gains and losses of this product, notably the BlackRock Greater Europe Investment Trust plc (the “Fund”)’s annual and interim report and monthly factsheet. These can all be found on the Fund’s website at www.blackrock.co.uk/brge. Product BlackRock Greater Europe Investment Trust plc (the "Fund"), Ordinary Shares (the "Shares"), ISIN: GB00B01RDH75, is manufactured by BlackRock Fund Managers Limited (the "Manager"). The Manager is authorised in the UK and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (the "FCA"). More information is available at www.blackrock.com or by calling 020 7743 3000. This document is dated 20 December 2024. What is this product? Type: The Fund is a closed-ended investment company, incorporated as a public limited company in England and Wales. The Fund's Shares are listed and traded on the London Stock Exchange. Term: The Fund does not have a fixed term of existence, or maturity period, but in certain circumstances it may be wound up by the directors and shareholders of the Fund, subject to compliance with the Fund’s articles of association and applicable laws. The Fund may not be unilaterally terminated by the Manager. Objectives The Fund aims to achieve long term capital growth on your investment. The Fund will seek to achieve its objective primarily by gaining exposure to the equity securities (e.g. shares) of large, mid and small capitalisation European companies, together with some investment in the developing markets of Europe. The Fund will also have the ability to invest in any country included in the FTSE World Europe ex UK Index (the “Index”), as well as the freedom to invest in developing countries not included in the Index but considered by the Manager and the directors of the Fund as part of greater Europe. Market capitalisation is the share price of the company multiplied by the number of shares in issue. The Fund may also invest in equity-related (ER) securities (such as depositary receipts which are investments issued by financial institutions which give exposure to underlying securities), other funds, fixed income securities (such as bonds), money market instruments (MMIs) (i.e. debt securities with short-term maturities) and convertible securities (which are fixed income securities that can be exchanged for shares on or before maturity). The fixed income securities and MMIs may be issued by governments, government agencies, companies and supranationals (e.g. the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development). The Fund may invest in the full range of fixed income securities which may include investments with a relatively low credit rating or which are unrated. The Fund may use derivatives (i.e. investments the prices of which are based on one or more underlying assets) to reduce risk within the Fund’s portfolio, reduce investment costs and generate additional income. The use of derivatives is expected to be limited. The Fund may borrow to purchase assets for the Fund. The Fund may, via derivatives and borrowing, generate varying amounts of market leverage (i.e. where the Fund gains market exposure in excess of the value of its assets). This will magnify any gains or losses made by the Fund. The Fund is actively managed and the Investment Manager has discretion to select the Fund's investments. The Fund’s full investment objective and policy is set out in the Fund’s latest annual report which can be found at www.blackrock.com/ uk/brge. The return on your investment in the Fund is directly related to the prevailing market price of the Fund’s Shares and may not reflect the value of the underlying assets of the Fund at the point of sale less costs (see “What are the costs?” below). Shares of the Fund are bought and sold on the secondary market. Typically, at any given time on any given day the price you pay for a Share will be higher than the price at which you can sell it. The price of equity securities fluctuates daily and may be influenced by factors affecting the performance of the individual companies issuing the equities, as well as market factors (e.g. supply and demand), and broader economic and political developments which in turn may affect the value of your investment. The price of a derivative changes on a daily basis depending on the value of the underlying reference asset(s) which in turn may affect the value of your investment. A change in the value of underlying reference assets can have a greater impact on the value of derivatives than if the assets were held directly since derivatives can be more sensitive to changes in the value of underlying reference assets. The Shares carry the right to receive dividends declared by the Fund. The relationship between the return on your investment, how it is impacted and the period for which you hold your investment is considered below under “How long should I hold it and can I take money out early?” The Shares are denominated in Sterling, the Fund’s base currency. Intended retail investor: The Fund is intended for retail investors with the ability to bear losses up to the amount invested in the Fund. Insurance benefits: The Fund does not offer any insurance benefits. 1 What are the risks and what could I get in return?

The Fund is required to pay out any surplus assets to shareholders on a winding up of the Fund, provided the Fund has satisfied all of its liabilities.

Presentation of costs This disclosure has been prepared with reference to the FCA’s statement on 19 September 2024 that Investment Trusts are no longer required to comply with the cost disclosure requirements under the UK PRIIPs Regulation. The person/company selling you or advising you about this product may charge you costs (which may include broker commission, platform fees, advisory fees and/or stamp duty). If so, this person/ company will provide you with information about these costs, and show you the impact that all costs will have on your investment over time. In purchasing the Fund’s ordinary shares, as with shares in listed companies more generally, there should be no additional costs paid by you other than those mentioned above. The Association of Investment Companies (“AIC”) has recommended that Investment Trusts disclose an Ongoing Charges Figure (“OCF”). This is calculated annually as a percentage of the average net assets and provides an indication of the underlying day-to-day operating costs of the Fund. BlackRock Greater Europe Investment Trust plc discloses its operating costs in its annual report and accounts, along with an OCF in line with AIC guidance. The most recently audited OCF for the year ended 31 August 2024 was 0.95%. More information on the calculation of the OCF, as well as costs more generally, are set out in the annual report which can be found at the following link: www.blackrock.com/uk/brge. The costs within the OCF are expenses incurred by the Fund and for the avoidance of doubt, the OCF is not an additional cost paid by shareholders to the Fund. The Fund’s published net asset value is net of all costs/fees included within the OCF calculation. Therefore, in line with the FCA’s forbearance statement, the costs set out in the below tables are now marked as zero as there are no additional costs payable by you to the Fund or its Manager associated with purchasing the Fund’s shares.
