Investment Objectives

The iShares Currency Hedged International Fixed Income Funds seek to provide income by replicating, to the extent possible, the performance of the applicable Hedged International Fixed Income Fund Index, net of expenses, and, to the extent possible, hedge any resulting U.S. dollar currency exposure back to Canadian dollars.

Investment Strategy

The investment strategy of each iShares Currency Hedged International Fixed Income Fund is to invest primarily in shares of a U.S. iShares Fund such that the resulting portfolio will have characteristics that closely match the characteristics of the applicable Hedged International Fixed Income Fund Index, and to hedge any resulting U.S. dollar currency exposure back to Canadian dollars.
