BlackRock UK Dynamic A Acc
This factsheet should be viewed in conjunction with the Key Investor Information
Document (KIID) as both provide important information. The KIID is accessible from
the link on the right.
Factsheets contain information about the features of the fund such as the investment
objective, fund region and past performance.
Some funds offer income units, accumulation units or both. The unit type you choose
will affect the way income generated from the fund is treated. With income units,
income is paid into your nominated account. With accumulation units income is retained
within the fund, increasing the value of your holding.
All Investments carry an element of risk. In particular, the value of Investments
and any income from them can go down as well as up and you may not get back what
you originally invested.
In addition, investing in funds is subject to specific risks. Details
of these risks are contained in the Key Investor Information Document which is
designed to provide important information about funds as well as the risks involved.
Fund Objective
To achieve long-term capital growth for investors. The Fund invests primarily in the shares of companies incorporated or listed in the UK which we consider exhibit either growth or value investment characteristics, placing an emphasis as the market outlook warrants. The Fund may also invest in collective investment schemes.

Risk and reward profile
| • This indicator 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 risk free. |
| • The Fund is rated six due to the nature of its investments which include the risks listed below. These factors may impact the value of the Fund’s investments or expose the Fund to losses. |
| - Shares in smaller companies typically trade in less volume and experience greater price variations than larger companies. |
| - Investment risk is concentrated in specific sectors, countries, currencies or companies. This means the Fund is more sensitive to any localised economic, market, political or regulatory events. |
| - The value of equities and equity-related securities can be affected by daily stock market movements. Other influential factors include political, economic news, company earnings and significant corporate events. |
| • Particular risks not adequately captured by the risk indicator include: |
| - Counterparty Risk: The insolvency of any institutions providing services such as safekeeping of assets or acting as counterparty to derivatives or other instruments, may expose the Fund to financial loss. |
| - Liquidity Risk: Lower liquidity means there are insufficient buyers or sellers to allow the Fund to sell or buy investments readily. |
| For more information on risks, please see the Fund's prospectus, which is available at www.blackrock.com. |
