| Investment Objective: |
The iShares Ultra Short Duration Bond Active ETF (the "Fund") seeks to provide current income consistent with preservation of capital. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in a portfolio of U.S. dollar-denominated investment-grade fixed- and floating-rate debt securities that are rated BBB- or higher by S&P Global Ratings and/or Fitch Ratings, Inc. ("Fitch"), or Baa3 or higher by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's"), or, if unrated, determined by the Fund's management team to be of equivalent quality. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest primarily in fixed- and floating-rate securities maturing in three years or less. The Fund may invest in corporate and U.S. and non-U.S. government bonds, agency securities, instruments of non-U.S. issuers, privately issued securities, asset-backed securities ("ABS") and mortgage-backed securities ("MBS"), structured securities, municipal bonds, repurchase agreements, money market instruments and investment companies. |
