Overview

Investment Approach

The Fund aims to provide a return on your investment (generated through an increase in the value of the assets held by the Fund and/or income received from those assets) by tracking closely the performance of the Markit iBoxx GBP Non-Gilts Overall TR Index, the Fund’s benchmark index. The Fund is passively managed and the investment adviser has discretion to select the Fund’s investments and in doing so may take into consideration the Benchmark Index. The Fund invests in fixed income securities (such as bonds) that make up the benchmark index and, at the time of purchase, comply with the credit rating requirements of the benchmark index. The benchmark index measures the performance of fixed income securities denominated in Sterling issued by governments, government agencies, companies and supranationals (e.g. the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development) but excludes gilts (i.e. bonds) issued by the UK government. These may include fixed income securities which pay income according to a fixed rate of interest and will be investment grade (i.e. meet a specified level of credit worthiness) at the time of inclusion in the benchmark index.

Portfolio Characteristics

Yield to Worst The average rate of return of the portfolio at current market prices, adjusting for optionality. as of Jul 31, 2020 1.45%

Modified Duration Modified Duration is a measure of price sensitivity of a bond to changes in interest rates. It inversely indicates the expected change in the price of a bond, assuming a 1% change in interest rates. The Modified Duration of iShares ETFs is calculated as the average of the underlying bonds' modified duration values, weighted by the bond's weight in the fund. as of Jul 31, 2020 8.06 yrs

Effective Duration Effective Duration is the approximate percentage change in price for a 1% parallel shift of the yield curve. Effective duration adjusts for changes in projected cashflows as a result of yield changes, accounting for embedded optionality. as of Jul 31, 2020 8.05 yrs

Weighted Avg Maturity Weighted Average Maturity is the length of time until the average security in the fund will mature or be redeemed by its issuer. It indicates a fixed income fund's sensitivity to interest rate changes. Longer average weighted maturity implies greater volatility in response to interest rate changes. This metric considers the likelihood that bonds will be called or prepaid. as of Jul 31, 2020 11.03 yrs

3y Volatility - Benchmark as of Jul 31, 2020 5.73

3y Beta Beta is a measure of the tendency of securities to move with the market as a whole. A beta of 1 indicates that the security's price will move with the market. A beta less than 1 indicates the security tends to be less volatile than the market, while a beta greater than 1 indicates the security is more volatile than the market. Calculated vs. Benchmark Index as of Jul 31, 2020 1.053

Ratings

Morningstar Rating

Overall iShares Corporate Bond Index Fund (UK) received a Morningstar Rating of 3 stars for the 3-year period, 3 stars stars for the 5-year period and 3 stars stars for the 10-year period, rated against 497, 416 and 279 GBP Corporate Bond Funds, respectively. Performance results represent past performance and are no guarantee of future results. For each U.S.-domiciled fund with at least a 3-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar RatingTM based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a fund's monthly performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads and redemption fees), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of funds in each category receive five stars, the next 22.5% receive four stars, the next 35% receive three stars, the next 22.5% receive two stars and the bottom 10% receive one star. (Each share class is counted as a fraction of one fund within this scale and rated separately, which may cause slight variations in the distribution percentages.) The Overall Morningstar Rating for a fund is derived from a weighted-average of the performance figures associated with its 3-, 5- and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. Morningstar Ratings are for the share classes cited only; other classes may have different ratings.
