You're on the BlackRock site for advisors. Do you want to change your user type to advisor?
These questions pertain to accounts held directly at BlackRock. If your account is through a brokerage or similar financial intermediary (i.e. Fidelity, Charles Schwab, Morgan Stanley, Edward Jones, etc.) you would need to contact them directly for any account related questions.
We would be happy to help you sign up for eDelivery of your statements, prospectus, shareholder reports and other mailings. BlackRock is a strong proponent of reducing paper use and lowering costs for investors. Whenever a document is issued, we will automatically alert you via e-mail, allowing you to immediately view and download the information directly online. For accounts held directly at BlackRock, please follow these instructions to sign up:
If your portfolio or account has been open for less than one year, the one-year calculation cannot be determined, or if the calculated rate of return meets or exceeds a value of "+" or "-" 75% the return will show "NA".
"Your Portfolio Performance" represents the total performance of your entire portfolio. In order to calculate your fund and portfolio performance, our software captures cash flows both into and out of your account(s) over the indicated time period. The performance information is shown on the statement as a rate-of-return percentage. Calculations include only accounts that were open during the quarter. Your personal performance is calculated using a standard accounting method known as internal rate of return (IRR). This method provides your rate of return by determining the difference between your beginning and ending balances, including all purchases and/or redemptions in the stated period. The return of purchases and/or redemptions is weighted based on their activity date. Please be advised that certain factors, such as account adjustments, may affect the return.
The inception date used to calculate your rate of return is based on the first purchase of the oldest fund currently reflected on this statement. If you withdraw all of your money from your original investment option, the inception date will switch to the next oldest investment and recalculate your performance based on the newer inception date.
At this time, our database does not have the ability to track data for accounts opened prior to January 1, 1993. If your portfolio or account was opened prior to January 1, 1993, the software will use the value of your account as of January 1, 1993 for the initial purchase.
At this time, our database does not have the ability to track data for accounts opened prior to January 1, 2005. If your portfolio or account was opened prior to January 1, 2005, the software will use the value of your account as of January 1, 2005 for the initial purchase.
On your account's two-year anniversary, we replaced the bar chart illustrating change in the value of your portfolio with a more comprehensive line graph. The line graph compares the total value of your portfolio to the net amount you have invested. Your net investment amount is the total amount invested minus the total amount withdrawn. If your account is less than two years old, a bar chart will illustrate your portfolio history and you will not notice any changes in this section.
The statement reflects only the accounts that were active during the current statement period. If one of the funds has been closed out through redemption and is no longer reflected on the statement, those cash flows will be removed from the chart. Therefore, the chart will show only the historical flow of the active accounts reflected on this statement.
The "Historical Fund Performance" section reflects the actual rates of return for the fund. The personal performance calculation is based on your investment results and is affected by applicable sales charges and the timing of your purchases and withdrawals.

The minimum investment for Investor A or Investor C Shares is $1,000 per fund, but may be lowered to $50 with an Automatic Investment Plan (the minimum additional investment for an Automatic Investment is $50 per draft, per fund). Initial minimums may differ for certain account types or other share classes; please consult the Fund’s prospectus for more information.
