High Yield
Designed to manage risk and to provide cost efficient market exposure to global high yield bonds for investors seeking higher current income. Giving investors the opportunity to integrate sustainable considerations in combination with reduced carbon footprint.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
We believe investors should be compensated for the risks they take — in all market environments and any investment strategy.
Minimize Tracking Error and Transaction Costs
We believe that the best way to mirror the risk/return profile of an index is to minimize transaction costs and tracking error. Our indexing methodology helps investors closely track their chosen benchmark exposure, while they rely on our integrated global platform backed by scale, experience, and infrastructure.
Effective Index Tracking Through Efficient Tracking Error Management
Access to Global Platform Backed by Scale, Experience & Infrastructure
Reliability from a Global Indexing Leader
Monthly Rebalancing Events Can Create Risk That Must Be Thoughtfully Managed
A disciplined and risk-aware investment process, backed by the size-and-scale of a trillion-dollar operating platform, enables us to keep trading costs down and navigate these key events with confidence.
Delivering Expected Outcomes Requires Scale and a Deep Appreciation for Risk
Replicating an index on any given day is not very difficult, but doing so consistently over several decades requires a deep understanding of how to navigate risk while finding the most efficient sources of return-mimicking exposures.
Integration of ESG Metrics has the Potential to Bolster Risk Adjusted Returns
