The funds will transition from FTSE benchmarks containing large- and mid-cap stocks to broader FTSE benchmarks that include large-, mid-, and small-cap stocks. The European Stock Index Fund will begin tracking the FTSE Developed Europe All Cap Index and the Pacific Stock Index Fund will begin to track the FTSE Developed Asia Pacific All Cap Index.
