iShares Core Canadian Universe Bond Index ETF

The fund provides exposure to investment-grade debt securities denominated in Canadian dollars that cover government, quasi-government, and corporate bonds. Bonds with remaining maturity of at least one year are selected and may include any or all of federal, provincial, corporate (including certain qualifying asset-backed securities) and municipal bonds. The index uses a rules-based methodology, which changes over time reflecting market developments. Using a sampling approach to indexing, the fund may not hold all the stocks of the underlying index but will hold securities that collectively have the same investment profile. The index is rebalanced on a daily basis.
