XSB seeks to provide income by replicating, to the extent possible, the performance of the FTSE Canada Short Term Overall Bond Index, net of expenses. Under normal market conditions, XSB will primarily invest in Canadian fixed income securities.
XSB's current principal investment strategy is to employ a Sampling Strategy. In addition to or as an alternative to this strategy, XSB may also invest by employing a Replicating Strategy, by investing in one or more iShares ETFs and/or through the use of derivatives. More information on these investment strategies and additional investment strategies that may be used by BlackRock Canada and/or BTC in managing this iShares Fund can be found under the heading Investment Strategies .
