About iShares
At Barclays Global Investors (BGI), we carry a long heritage of innovation, customer focus and expertise in investment management. It was back in the 1970s when we developed the first index strategy. And seven years ago, we applied this expertise in indexing to Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) with the launch of iShares. Today, BGI is the world’s leading ETF provider with over 300 iShares funds listed on major exchanges around the world.
The recent launch of iShares in the Australian market is part of BGI’s ongoing commitment to extend our range of investment solutions to investors around the world. We are delighted that the benefits overseas investors have been enjoying with iShares, including trading flexibility, simplicity and cost-effective diversification, are now available to Australians.
iShares behave like any other listed share, they are traded on a local stock exchange and their performance aims to reflect that of the index. The broad range of iShares and their global reach appeals to all types of investors, by delivering immediate exposure to country, regional and global markets with just one trade. With iShares, investors can implement a wide range of investment strategies including core/satellite and tactical asset allocation.
