SPDR Bloomberg International Corporate Bond ETF

The SPDR Bloomberg International Corporate Bond ETF (IBND) aims to generally mirror the price and yield performance of the Bloomberg Global Aggregate ex-USD > $1B: Corporate Bond Index, before accounting for fees and expenses. This fund offers investors broad access to the global, investment-grade, fixed-rate corporate debt markets, specifically excluding those within the United States. To be included in the underlying index, bonds must meet several key criteria: they need a minimum outstanding market capitalization equivalent to $1 billion USD, have at least one year remaining until maturity, feature a fixed interest rate (though zero-coupon and step-up bonds are permissible), and hold an investment-grade credit rating. The index is weighted by the market capitalization of its constituents and undergoes monthly rebalancing on the last business day of each month.
