ETF description
This ETF is designed to provide exposure to global companies that are considered to have high‑quality characteristics. It tracks an index that selects companies based on factors like profitability, stable earnings, and low levels of debt. The goal is to focus on firms that are financially strong and have the potential to perform well over time, regardless of short‑term market fluctuations. By emphasizing these quality factors, the ETF seeks to offer investors a portfolio of companies that are more resilient during economic downturns or periods of market stress.
This ETF may appeal to investors who want to invest globally but prefer to focus on financially sound companies with a proven track record of stability. It could be suitable for those looking for a more conservative approach to global equity investing, aiming to reduce the risk associated with more volatile or speculative stocks.
Issuer details

With 800+ products globally and over $2trn in assets (as at June 2024), iShares ETFs are a flexible, low‑cost way for investors to gain exposure to various market segments, including fixed income, emerging markets and broad‑based indexes.
Index details

By targeting high‑quality companies, the index aims to capture the performance of firms with strong fundamentals and robust financial health.

ETFs have spreads and annual charges and come with risks like market volatility, liquidity, and concentration, and may not always accurately track their index. Past performance and forecasts are not reliable indicators of future results. The value of your investments, including any income, can rise or fall. You may get back less than you originally invested.
