Fund profile

As filed in the prospectus · 2026 Q1

The iShares Broad USD High Yield Corporate Bond ETF (the Fund ) seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of U.S. dollar-denominated, high yield corporate bonds.

Strategy · summarised

The fund tracks the ICE BofA US High Yield Constrained Index using representative sampling, holding a sample of high-yield corporate bonds issued by companies domiciled in FX-G10 countries with at least $250 million outstanding and one year to maturity. Because the fund samples rather than holds all index constituents, its returns may diverge from the index. The fund concentrates its holdings in industries to the same extent as the index, which as of October 2025 has significant exposure to industrials.

These positions come to 110.73% of the fund's net assets. This counts only what the fund reported holding — the holdings disclosure covers assets, not liabilities such as borrowings — so it is not expected to reconcile to 100%.

These three overlap — one holding can be in arrears and paying in kind at once — so they are shown separately and never summed.

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
1.69 yr
approx. move per 100bp
Credit-spread duration
2.98 yr

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.

of value
Credit spreads64%
Interest rates36%

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.

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.
