iShares 1-5 Year Investment Grade Corporate Bond ETF (Nasdaq:IGSB) seeks to track short-term US dollar investment-grade corporate bonds. Its NAV stood at USD 51.43 as of 2 November 2026. Net Assets totalled USD 23,651,011,861 as of 2 November 2026.

A Shorter Maturity Window for Corporate Debt

IGSB tracks the ICE BofA 1-5 Year US Corporate Index. The benchmark targets the one-to-five-year segment of the corporate bond market and includes eligible US and non-US issuers. Fixed-rate securities must satisfy investment-grade and issue-size criteria. Monthly index updates maintain the intended maturity and Credit focus as individual bonds age.

The fund uses representative sampling, selecting investments intended to resemble the benchmark’s overall characteristics. It may therefore hold a different collection of securities from the index while seeking a similar investment profile.

Portfolio Composition and Exposure

IGSB reported 4,743 holdings as of 30 October 2026. Its allocation by Market Value included Banking at 29.06%, Consumer Cyclical at 8.87% and Other at 8.84% as of 30 October 2026.

The portfolio’s effective duration was 2.64 yrs as of 30 October 2026. Weighted average maturity was 3.07 yrs as of 30 October 2026.

Duration measures sensitivity to Interest Rate changes. Maturity describes the timing of principal repayments, while cash-flow patterns and embedded Options can make the two measures differ. These characteristics describe the bond portfolio rather than a fixed outcome for shareholders.

The fact sheet dated 30 September 2026 recorded credit allocations including A Rated at 45.27% and BBB Rated at 44.12%. These classifications describe underlying securities at that date; ratings and portfolio credit quality can change.

Fees and Distribution Policy

The published expense ratio is 0.04%. Distributions are scheduled monthly.

The 30-day SEC Yield was 5.47% as of 30 October 2026. This standardised income measure reflects the fund’s recent income after expenses; it is separate from changes in the market value of its shares.

The prospectus notes that brokerage commissions and other intermediary charges may apply separately. Fund shares trade at market prices, which can differ from NAV, so the stated NAV does not establish the price of every exchange transaction.

Key Insights

Corporate credit risk remains relevant alongside interest rate risk. A shorter maturity profile changes the portfolio’s rate sensitivity, but issuers can still experience financial deterioration and bond prices can decline.
