Description: IEFA Core EAFE

The iShares Core MSCI EAFE ETF (IEFA) is a passively managed fund that seeks to track the performance of its underlying index by investing at least 80% of its assets in the indexs component securities, or in investments with substantially identical economic characteristics. The underlying index is designed to capture equity market performance across large-, mid-, and small-capitalization companies in Europe, Australasia, and the Far East.

As a Foreign Large Blend ETF listed on BATS, IEFA provides broad, market-cap-weighted exposure to developed-market equities outside the U.S. and Canada, operating under a passive indexing model that aims to replicate benchmark returns rather than outperform them.
