Question

Can the prospectus of an index-tracking UCITS mention both replication methodologies (physical and synthetic replication)?

Answer

[ESMA 34-43-392 UCITS Q&A, section 3, Q&A 1a] Yes. If the UCITS intends to use both replication methodologies either at the same time or alternatively, this should be reflected in the prospectus.
