iShares launches first short-dated sterling corporate bond ETF on the LSE

iShares lists new fixed-income ETF in London

iShares has listed the world's first short-dated sterling-denominated corporate bond exchange-traded fund (ETF) on the London Stock Exchange in response to consistent demand from its clients for fixed-income products.

The ETF tracks the Markit iBoxx £ Corporate Bond 1-5 index and complements iShares' existing suite of sterling-denominated and other fixed-income products. "We had a big push for bringing out fixed-income iShares last year, and we are continuing to see big demand from our clients,"
