The iShares Core International Aggregate Bond ETF (the Fund ) seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of global non-U.S. dollar-denominated investment-grade bonds that mitigates exposure to fluctuations between the value of the component currencies and the U.S. dollar.
The fund tracks the Bloomberg Global Aggregate ex USD 10% Issuer Capped (Hedged) Index, which comprises investment-grade bonds issued in non-U.S. currencies by governments, supranationals, and corporations across developed and emerging markets. The fund uses representative sampling to hold a portfolio with similar characteristics to the index rather than all constituents. Currency risk is hedged to the U.S. dollar monthly through foreign currency forward contracts, which means returns will diverge from an unhedged global bond index and may underperform when non-U.S. currencies strengthen against the dollar. Because the fund samples the index, its returns may not precisely track the index.

What the fund is made of
Percentages are of fund net assets. Rounding, liabilities and short positions can make totals differ from 100%.
| Bonds | 100.23% |
| Cash & short-term | 0.33% |
| Securitized | 0.01% |
| Derivatives | -1.85% |
The outer band is exposure held short — written against the portfolio rather than part of it, which is why it sits outside the ring and why the two are never netted into one figure.
Derivatives are shown at market value, not notional exposure.
How it has done
IAGG share class · total returns with dividends reinvested
Volatility over the last 12 months: 2.69%. Past returns are a record, not a forecast.
Jun 2026 and Jul 2026 have been filed since the trailing figures were struck, so they are not in the table above or the curve — every figure here shares one cut-off, which is what makes them comparable with other funds.

Debt profile
What this fund holds — value-weighted across its bond and securitized long positions · as of 2026-04-30
Share of the fund's debt by how its coupon behaves — the fact that decides whether a rate move reaches this portfolio at all.
| Fixed rate | 96.2% |
| Zero-coupon or unclassified | 3.8% |
Share of the fund's debt value in each maturity band, shortest first.
| <1y | 2.1% |
| 1-3y | 21.9% |
| 3-5y | 21.4% |
| 5-10y | 33.1% |
| 10y+ | 21.6% |
Based on what filers reported; a filer that never reported a flag also reads as none.
Risk profile
Interest-rate and credit-spread sensitivity, both in years · as of 2026Q2
Most of this fund’s sensitivity is to interest rates, with credit spreads carrying about half as much.
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.
| Interest rates | 64% |
| Credit spreads | 36% |
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 the fund's spread duration carried by each credit tier.
| Investment grade | +3.11 yr |
| High yield | +0.35 yr |
Share of duration at each point, shortest first. A positive figure loses value when spreads widen; a negative one offsets — a credit hedge.
| 1 yr | 0.34 yr | 5% |
| 5 yr | 2.54 yr | 41% |
| 10 yr | 1.69 yr | 28% |
| 30 yr | 1.57 yr | 26% |
3 mo is NEGATIVE (-0.08 yr) — a deliberate hedge at that point on the curve, so it is not part of the band above.
| 3 mo | 0.00 yr | 0% |
| 1 yr | 0.16 yr | 5% |
| 5 yr | 1.56 yr | 45% |
| 10 yr | 0.97 yr | 28% |
| 30 yr | 0.76 yr | 22% |
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.

Dollar change per 1bp of spread movement, as filed and sign-anchored. A blank cell was not filed; a zero was.
Duration contribution in years, summing to the fund's 6.06 yr.
This is where the fund's rate exposure sits, not its currency risk — most international bond funds hedge the currency back to dollars, and the size of those hedges is not in the filing. Tenors are also summed across curves, so a 5-year JPY point and a 5-year USD point are added together.
A newer credit-spread reading (2026Q3) is on file. This page holds one quarter across every figure on it, so that one appears here next quarter.
