iShares Broad Global Govt Bond UCITS ETF - USD ACC ETF

The Fund aims to achieve a return on your investment, taking into account both capital and income returns, which reflects the return of the Bloomberg Global Aggregate Treasuries Index ('Index'). The Share Class, via the Fund, is passively managed and aims to invest so far as possible and practicable in fixed income securities issued or guaranteed by governments. The Index aims to measure the performance of fixed rate, local currency, investment grade government bonds representing debt issued or guaranteed by developed and emerging market countries within the treasury sector of the Bloomberg Global Aggregate Index ('Parent Index'). Only bonds that meet the index provider's criteria for time to maturity and amount outstanding are included in the Benchmark Index. Such bonds will, at the time of inclusion in the Benchmark Index, be rated at least investment grade by rating agencies such as Moody's, Standard and Poor's and Fitch or an equivalent rating from another agency. The Fund may trade China bonds via Bond Connect. The index is market capitalisation weighted and rebalances on a monthly basis. Market capitalisation is the market value of the outstanding bond issuance. The Fund uses optimising techniques to achieve a similar return to its index. These techniques may include the strategic selection of certain securities that make up the Index or other securities which provide similar performance to certain constituent securities. These may also include the use of financial derivative instruments (FDIs) (i.e. investments the prices of which are based on one or more underlying assets). FDI may be used for direct investment purposes.
