Fund profile

As filed in the prospectus · 2026 Q1

The iShares 0-5 Year Investment Grade Corporate Bond ETF (the Fund ) seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of U.S. dollar-denominated, investment-grade corporate bonds with remaining maturities of less than five years.

Strategy · summarised

The fund tracks the Markit iBoxx USD Liquid Investment Grade 0-5 Index using representative sampling, holding a sample of investment-grade corporate bonds maturing within five years that collectively match the index's characteristics, sector weights, and issuer concentration. Because the fund may not hold all index components, its returns can diverge from the index it seeks to track. The fund concentrates its holdings in industries to the same extent as the underlying index, which as of October 2025 is significantly weighted toward consumer goods and services and financial services.

Risk profile

Interest-rate and credit-spread sensitivity, both in years · as of 2026Q2

More of this fund’s sensitivity sits in credit spreads than in interest rates — a rate rally that comes with a credit selloff works against it.

Interest-rate duration
2.16 yr
approx. move per 100bp
Credit-spread duration
2.26 yr
approx. move per 100bp
If rates and spreads both rise 100bp

Where the loss would come from. The two shocks are the same size, so this is the balance of the fund's two sensitivities rather than a bet on one moving more.

≈ -4.5%
of value
Credit spreads51%
Interest rates49%

Filers report the impact of a 0.01% move only, so the total is our own scaling of that one number and overstates the loss on most bonds — read it as approximate, never as precise. The two sensitivities overlap rather than add up: they measure the same positions against different shocks, which is why the durations above are shown side by side and never summed.

Share of duration at each point, shortest first. A positive figure loses value when spreads widen; a negative one offsets — a credit hedge.

The two bands measure the same positions against different shocks and do not add — a Treasury carries rate duration and no spread duration, a floating-rate credit the reverse. Rate tenors are also summed across every currency the fund discloses.
