Portfolio Characteristics

Portfolio Characteristics

P/E Ratio The price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio is a fundamental measure used to determine if an investment is valued appropriately. Each holding's P/E is the latest closing price divided by the latest fiscal year's earnings per share. Negative P/E ratios are excluded from this calculation. For hedged funds, the underlying fund’s value is shown. as of Jun 30, 2020 6.05
P/B Ratio The price-to-book value (P/B) ratio is a fundamental measure used to determine if an investment is valued appropriately. The book value of a company is a measure of how much a company's assets are worth assuming the company's debts are paid off. Each holding's P/B is the latest closing price divided by the latest fiscal year's book value per share. Negative book values are excluded from this calculation. For hedged funds, the underlying fund’s value is shown. as of Jun 30, 2020 0.84
Equity Beta (3y) 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&#39;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.<br/><br/>Calculated vs. S&amp;P 500 as of May 31, 2020 1.09
Standard Deviation (3y) Standard deviation measures how dispersed returns are around the average. A higher standard deviation indicates that returns are spread out over a larger range of values and thus, more volatile. as of May 31, 2020 24.48%
12m Trailing Yield The yield an investor would have received if they had held the fund over the last twelve months assuming the most recent NAV. The 12-Month yield is calculated by assuming any income distributions over the past twelve months and dividing by the sum of the most recent NAV and any capital gain distributions made over the past twelve months. as of May 29, 2020 9.21%
30 Day SEC Yield A standard calculation of yield introduced by the SEC in order to provide fairer comparison among funds. This yield reflects the interest earned after deducting the fund&#39;s expenses during the most recent 30-day period by the average investor in the fund. Negative 30-Day SEC Yield results when accrued expenses of the past 30 days exceed the income collected during the past 30 days. as of May 29, 2020 6.44%

Sustainability Characteristics

Sustainability Characteristics

ESG metrics help investors evaluate companies based on environmental, social, and governance risks and opportunities — and the companies’ ability to manage them. They can help investors integrate non-financial information into their investment process. Learn more.

MSCI ESG Rating The MSCI ESG Rating for funds is designed to measure the resiliency of portfolios to long-term ESG risks and opportunities. The most highly rated funds consist of issuers with leading or improving management of key ESG risks. The ESG Rating is calculated as a direct mapping of ESG Quality Scores to letter rating categories (e.g. AAA = 8.6-10). The ESG Ratings range from leader (AAA, AA), average (A, BBB, BB) to laggard (B, CCC). as of Jun 01, 2020 BBB
MSCI ESG Quality Score The MSCI ESG Quality Score (0 - 10) for funds is calculated using the weighted average of the ESG scores of fund holdings. The Score also considers ESG Rating trend of holdings and the fund exposure to holdings in the laggard category. MSCI rates underlying holdings according to their exposure to 37 industry specific ESG risks and their ability to manage those risks relative to peers. These issuer-level ESG ratings correspond to an issuer-level ESG Score. as of Jun 01, 2020 4.5
MSCI ESG Quality Score - Peer Percentile The MSCI ESG Quality Score - Peer Percentile for funds is a percentile of funds in the same peer group, based on their ESG Quality Scores. as of Jun 01, 2020 50.32%
MSCI ESG % Coverage Percent by weight of a fund&#39;s holdings that have ESG Data. as of Jun 01, 2020 99.90%
Fund Lipper Global Classification The fund peer group as defined by the Lipper Global Classification. as of Jun 01, 2020 Equity Emerging Mkts Global
MSCI Weighted Average Carbon Intensity
(Tons CO2E/$M SALES) The MSCI Weighted Average Carbon Intensity measures a fund&#39;s exposure to carbon intensive companies. This figure represents the estimated greenhouse gas emissions per $1 million in sales across the fund’s holdings. The figure is a sum of the normalized security weight multiplied by the security Carbon Intensity. This allows for comparisons between funds of different sizes. as of Jun 01, 2020 912.59
Fund Lipper Global Classification Size The number of funds used to calculate the MSCI ESG Quality Score - Peer Percentile. This is based on the Lipper Global Classification and reflects the funds that are in the MSCI ESG Fund Ratings coverage universe. as of Jun 01, 2020 932
All data is from MSCI ESG Fund Ratings as of Jun 01, 2020, based on holdings as of Apr 30, 2020.

For newly launched funds, sustainability characteristics are typically available 6 months after launch.

 

Sustainability Characteristics are displayed for funds included in the MSCI ESG Fund Ratings. To be included in MSCI ESG Fund Ratings, 65% of the fund’s underlying holdings (excluding cash positions) must be covered by MSCI ESG Research, the fund’s holdings date must be less than one year old, and the fund must have at least ten securities.

 

Inclusion of Sustainability Characteristics is not indicative of a fund’s investment objective, nor is it an implication that a fund employs an ESG-related portfolio management strategy.

Non-U.S. securities whose values are affected by volatility that occurs in global markets or in related or highly correlated assets (e.g., American Depositary Receipts, Global Depositary Receipts or substantially identical ETFs) on a trading day after the close of non-U.S. securities markets may be fair valued. On days where non-U.S. securities markets are closed, BlackRock Fund Advisors, an affiliate of BlackRock Investments, LLC, will determine the fair value of the stocks traded on that local market, in accordance with policies and procedures approved by the Fund’s Board of Directors/Trustees. Fair value adjustments may be calculated by referring to instruments and markets that have continued to trade, such as exchange-traded funds, correlated stock market indices or index futures. Please see the Determination of Net Asset Value section of each Fund’s prospectus for additional information on the Fund’s valuation policies and procedures.
