What this fund is
Objective, as filed

The iShares Intermediate Government/Credit Bond ETF (the Fund ) seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of U.S. dollar-denominated government, government-related and investment-grade U.S. corporate bonds with remaining maturities between one and ten years.

Strategy, summarised

The fund tracks the Bloomberg U.S. Intermediate Government/Credit Bond Index using representative sampling, holding a sample of securities with similar investment characteristics to the index rather than all constituents. The index comprises U.S. Treasury, government-related, and investment-grade corporate bonds with one to ten years remaining maturity. Because the fund samples rather than fully replicates the index, its returns may diverge from the index it seeks to track.

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.

3.72 yr
approx. move per 100bp
1.44 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.

of value
Interest rates72%
Credit spreads28%

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.

Where the risk sits on the curve

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

30 yr is NEGATIVE (-0.00 yr) — a deliberate hedge at that point on the curve, so it is not part of the band above.

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.
