Investment Objectives

XHY seeks to provide income by replicating, to the extent possible, the performance of an index which is a diversified representation of the USD-denominated high yield corporate bond market, net of expenses, and, to the extent possible, hedge any resulting U.S. dollar currency exposure back to Canadian dollars. XHY currently seeks to replicate the performance of the Markit iBoxx USD Liquid High Yield Total Return Index hedged in CAD.

Investment Strategy

XHY's current principal investment strategy is to employ a Sampling Strategy. In addition to or as an alternative to this strategy, XHY may also invest by employing a Replicating Strategy, by investing in one or more iShares ETFs and/or through the use of derivatives. XHY employs a Currency Hedging Strategy with respect to U.S. dollar currency exposure.
