The iShares iBoxx $ High Yield Corporate Bond ETF (HYG) is a passively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks to track a rules-based index of U.S. dollar-denominated high yield corporate bonds sold in the U.S. market. The fund commits at least 80% of its assets to the component securities of its underlying index, and at least 90% to fixed income securities of the types represented in that index, in order to maintain index tracking accuracy.
High yield corporate bonds, commonly referred to as junk bonds, are debt securities rated below investment grade that compensate investors for elevated credit and default risk through higher coupon payments. As one of the largest and most liquid high yield bond ETFs, HYG offers investors transparent, exchange-traded access to a broad segment of the U.S. corporate credit market, with the ETF wrapper providing intraday pricing and ease of trading compared to owning individual bond positions.
