Global economies are more connected than ever, making it difficult to rely solely on buying stocks and bonds to build a diversified portfolio. Because alternatives tend to behave differently than stocks and bonds, adding them to your portfolio can offer scope for broader diversification and the potential to reduce risk and enhance returns.
At BlackRock, our longstanding experience in alternative investing and breadth of solutions can help you meet your desired goals. While alternatives don’t eliminate risk from a portfolio, they can offer an efficient way to help reduce the effects of particular risks and pinpoint specific outcomes.

Incorporating alternative investments into a portfolio presents the opportunity for significant losses including in some cases, losses which exceed the principal amount invested. Also, some alternative investments have experienced periods of extreme volatility and in general, are not suitable for all investors. Asset allocation and diversification strategies do not ensure profit or protect against loss in declining markets.
Carefully consider the Funds' investment objectives, risk factors, and charges and expenses before investing. This and other information can be found in the Funds' prospectuses or, if available, the summary prospectuses which may be obtained visiting the iShares ETF and BlackRock Mutual Fund prospectus pages. Read the prospectus carefully before investing.
