Fund Description: iShares Short Maturity Municipal Bond ETF is an actively managed exchange-traded fund or Actively Managed ETF which is a separate investment portfolio of the iShares U.S. ETF Trust, an open-end investment management company. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE: The iShares Short Maturity Municipal Bond ETF seeks to maximize tax-free current income. The Fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund (ETF) and thus does not seek to replicate the performance of a specified index. FUND STRATEGY: The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in municipal securities such that the interest on each bond is exempt from U.S. federal income taxes and the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT). The Fund primarily invests in U.S. dollar-denominated investment-grade short-term fixed- and floating-rate municipal securities with remaining maturities of five years or less, such as municipal bonds, municipal notes and variable rate demand obligations, as well as money market instruments and registered investment companies. Investment-grade securities are rated a minimum of BBB- or higher by S&P and/or Fitch, or Baa3 or higher by Moody’s, or, if unrated, determined to be of equivalent quality. Municipal bonds include debt obligations issued by or on behalf of a governmental entity or other qualifying issuer that pay interest that is, in the opinion of bond counsel to the issuer at the time of issuance, generally excludable from gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its net assets in municipal securities that pay interest that is subject to the federal AMT. Issuers may be states, territories and possessions of the United States, including the District of Columbia, and their political subdivisions, agencies and instrumentalities. The Fund's effective duration will be 1.2 years or less and it is not expected to exceed 1.5 years. The Fund will also seek to maintain a weighted average maturity that is less than three years. The Fund may lend securities representing up to one-third of the value of the Fund's total assets (including the value of the collateral received). FUND MANAGEMENT: BlackRock Fund Advisors (BFA) serves as the investment adviser to the Fund.
Notes: This iShares ETF is listed on the BATS Market Exchange.
