The index is constructed by identifying the top five developed market (including the United States) and top five emerging market countries represented in the Benchmark Index with the highest gross domestic product (“GDP”) growth (as measured by the 1-year trailing GDP growth rates as of the most recent two quarters). Each country will represent 10% of the Underlying Index. Once those ten countries are identified, the top ten securities in the Benchmark Index from each of those countries are identified according to revenue earned by the companies. Those securities are then reweighted according to the revenue earned by the companies, subject to certain asset diversification requirements and a maximum 5% per company weighting. The Underlying Index is reconstituted quarterly according to the constituent countries
