A fixed income ETF is a collection of individual bonds that trades on exchange, making investing in fixed income easy and transparent1, especially during periods of market volatility. Today, investors of all types — from sophisticated institutions, financial advisors, and personal investors — are investing with fixed income ETFs to access fixed income markets with better liquidity. iShares Fixed Income ETFs can help diversify your equities, pursue income or preserve capital by putting your cash to work.
In today’s unique environment of ultra-low bond yields and sky-high equity market volatility is an important reminder that no single bond investment can achieve diversification, income and capital preservation at the same time. More than ever, it makes sense to understand what you want your fixed income investments to do and invest accordingly, helping you stick with your long-term investing goals.
We discuss how to use Fixed Income ETFs to help diversify from equities in order to help seek stability in your portfolio.
