Investment Objectives

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

Investment Strategy

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