Trade iShares 1-3 Year International Treasury Bond ETF - ISHG CFD

The fund will invest at least 80% of its assets in the component securities of the underlying index, and it will invest at least 90% of its assets in fixed income securities of the types included in the underlying index that BFA believes will help the fund track the underlying index. This ETF offers exposure to bonds issued by governments outside the U.S., offering an efficient way to access an asset class that is overlooked within the portfolios of many U.S.-based investors. Most fixed income portfolios are comprised almost entirely of securities from U.S. issuers, but the addition of international debt has the potential to enhance returns and add diversification benefits as well. By focusing on short-term debt, ISHG may appeal to investors concerned about the adverse impact of rising interest rates, and is primarily a tactical tool to be used for fine tuning the fixed income side of a portfolio.
