The Fund aims to achieve a return on your investment, through a combination of capital growth and income on the Fund’s assets, which reflects the return of the equity market in the United States.
Provides investors with passive and low cost exposure to the S&P 500 Index. Represents an inexpensive offering to a broad universe of companies, reflecting the performance of close to 500 large-cap equities in the US. In recent years, the index has developed a significant exposure to the US Information Technology sector.
Part of BlackRock's iShares suite, a recognized platform with over USD 5 trillion in assets under management within their ETF franchise. iShares launched in 1996 and replicates more than 1600 indexes across Equity and Fixed Income.
Since its inception in 1998, the Fund has effectively tracked the S&P 500 Index with a difference in performance lower than 0.25%. The Fund's low expense ratio aids in cost-effective tracking of the Index.
This Fund is synthetic and gains exposure to the US equity market through S&P 500 futures contracts rolled quarterly to maintain continuous exposure while the remaining cash is held in liquid instruments to meet margin requirements. Futures allow the Fund to replicate the index using only a fraction of the total value posted as margin and offer favourable tax treatment as profits are taxed under the 60/40 rule (60% long-term, 40% short-term), unlike stocks. BlackRock's disciplined and adaptable approach to index tracking has consistently delivered index tracking outcomes by optimally managing and balancing return, risk and cost.
Access to clean retail share class with no trailer fees to achieve the lowest possible fees
Investors looking to gain a passive and cost-effective exposure to the S&P 500 Index can consider the Fund as a satellite position in a more broadly diversified portfolio, given its focus on the 500 largest US companies by market capitalization. Investors should remain mindful that the Fund is an equity strategy and will likely experience periods of heightened volatility and drawdowns. The fund is focused on a single country, the US and has notable exposure to the Information Technology sector, which may involve specific country-related and sector-related risks.
