Description: FLOT iShares Floating Rate Bond January 07, 2026

The iShares Floating Rate Bond ETF (ticker FLOT) aims to track its underlying index by allocating at least 80 % of assets to the index’s component securities and at least 90 % to fixed-income instruments that the manager believes will best replicate index performance.

Key quantitative metrics (as of the most recent public data, Q4 2024) include an expense ratio of 0.20 %, a weighted-average maturity of roughly 0.5 years, and a 30-day SEC yield near 5.5 %. The portfolio is heavily weighted toward senior secured bank loans and other floating-rate instruments, resulting in an average credit rating of BB-/BBB-, which reflects a bias toward investment-grade credit with modest credit-risk exposure.

Because the securities reset their coupon rates frequently (often daily or weekly), the fund’s performance is closely tied to short-term interest-rate movements. Consequently, a rising federal-funds rate environment, the ongoing transition from LIBOR to SOFR, and the health of the U.S. corporate loan market are the primary macro drivers of returns and risk.
