LQIG Profile
The SPDR MarketAxess Investment Grade 400 Corporate Bond ETF is designed to offer investors exposure to a diversified portfolio of high-quality corporate bonds. The fund aims to replicate the performance of its underlying index by investing a significant portionâ€at least 80%â€of its total assets in the securities that compose the index. This approach ensures that the fund's holdings closely mirror the index's composition and characteristics, providing a representative snapshot of the investment-grade corporate bond market.
The underlying index tracks a broad range of investment-grade corporate bonds, selected based on criteria that include credit quality, liquidity, and sector representation. By focusing on bonds with high credit ratings, the ETF seeks to deliver stable income and capital preservation, appealing to investors seeking a conservative fixed income investment. The fund's holdings include a variety of corporate debt instruments issued by large, financially stable companies, reflecting the index's emphasis on high-quality securities.
In addition to investing directly in the index's component securities, the fund may allocate assets to other investments with similar economic characteristics. This strategy allows the fund to maintain its investment objective and provide exposure to the same risk and return profile as the index. The fund's investment approach is designed to ensure that its performance closely tracks the index, while also offering flexibility to adapt to market conditions.
As a key feature of its investment strategy, the SPDR MarketAxess Investment Grade 400 Corporate Bond ETF leverages the MarketAxess platform to enhance its bond trading and liquidity management. MarketAxess provides advanced trading technology and data analytics, which support the fund's ability to execute transactions efficiently and manage its portfolio effectively. This integration helps the fund maintain its investment objective and deliver competitive returns while managing transaction costs and optimizing liquidity.
