Description: FLOT Floating Rate Bond

The iShares Floating Rate Bond ETF (FLOT) is a passively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks to track the performance of its underlying index by holding its component securities. Under its investment policy, the fund commits at least 80% of its assets to the securities comprising the benchmark index, and at least 90% of its assets to fixed income securities of the types represented in that index that BlackRock Fund Advisors (BFA) considers helpful for index replication.

Floating rate bond ETFs typically invest in variable-rate debt instruments whose coupons adjust periodically with prevailing short-term interest rates, generally offering lower interest rate sensitivity than fixed-coupon bonds. As an Ultrashort Bond category ETF, FLOT focuses on securities with very short maturities, which typically aim to limit duration risk and capital volatility while providing current income.
