Abstract
Extremal BPS-saturated black holes in , supergravity can carry electric and magnetic charges . It is shown that in smooth cases the moduli fields at the horizon take a fixed "rational" value which is determined by the charges and is independent of the asymptotic values of the moduli fields. A universal formula for the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy is derived in terms of the charges and the moduli space geometry at . This work extends previous results of Ferrara, Kallosh and the author for the pure magnetic case.
