Description: FLOT Floating Rate Bond

The iShares Floating Rate Bond ETF (FLOT) operates as a passively managed index fund, allocating at least 80% of its assets to the component securities of its underlying benchmark and at least 90% to fixed income securities selected by BlackRock Fund Advisors (BFA) to closely track that benchmark.

The fund belongs to the Ultrashort Bond ETF category, reflecting its focus on short-duration debt instruments whose coupons reset periodically with prevailing interest rates, which helps limit interest rate risk. As an exchange-traded fund listed on BATS and managed by BlackRocks iShares franchise, FLOT provides investors with liquid, low-cost exposure to a diversified basket of floating-rate notes primarily issued by U.S. corporations.

Headlines to Watch Out For
