FLIA Profile
The Franklin International Aggregate Bond ETF generally invests a minimum of 80% of its net assets in a broad array of bonds and related investments. These bonds encompass various debt instruments, including bonds, notes, bills, and debentures, with varying maturities. The fund's strategy focuses on providing comprehensive exposure to the international bond market, excluding U.S.-based issuers.
The ETF predominantly allocates its assets to fixed and floating-rate bonds issued by foreign governments, government agencies, and corporate entities. This investment approach includes a diverse selection of debt obligations from across the globe, aiming to capture yield opportunities and income potential from international sources. By investing in bonds from various countries and regions, the fund seeks to provide a balanced exposure to global fixed income markets while mitigating risks associated with any single issuer or country.
The fund's non-diversified nature means it does not concentrate its investments in a specific number of securities or sectors. Instead, it maintains a broader investment universe, allowing for a wider distribution of risk across different bond types and geographical regions. This strategy helps manage credit risk and interest rate exposure, offering investors a more comprehensive approach to international fixed-income investing.
Managed by Franklin Templeton, the ETF benefits from the firm's extensive experience and expertise in global fixed-income markets. Franklin Templeton’s rigorous analysis and strategic investment process support the fund’s objective of delivering attractive risk-adjusted returns. The firm’s commitment to global investment solutions underscores its dedication to providing investors with diversified fixed-income opportunities in the international bond market.
