IPFF Fund Description

IPFF tracks a market weighted index of non-US issued and traded preferred stocks.

IPFF Factset Analytics Insight

By design, IPFF ignores US-listed preferred stocks by design, instead holding those issued in other developed markets. As such, IPFF avoids the largest preferred-stock issuers in the world like Bank of America and Citigroup, and focuses on Canadian- and UK-issued preferred securities. Canada and the UK account for about 85% of the fund’s securities per issuer documents, which likely reflects that these are the only two countries outside the US where preferred-stock issuance is common. IPFF asset levels have varied, swelling up then shrinking in 2013 on net outflows. However, the current tally of about $40M is enough to ward off closure risk. IPFF charges 55 bps for its exposure, in line with other preferred-stock ETFs, but the fund isn’t cheap to trade.

IPFF MSCI ESG Analytics Insight

iShares International Preferred Stock ETF has an MSCI ESG Fund Rating of A based on a score of 7.04 out of 10. The MSCI ESG Fund Rating measures the resiliency of portfolios to long-term risks and opportunities arising from environmental, social, and governance factors. ESG Fund Ratings range from best (AAA) to worst (CCC). Highly rated funds consist of companies that tend to show strong and/or improving management of financially relevant environmental, social and governance issues. These companies may be more resilient to disruptions arising from ESG events.

The fund’s Peer Rank reflects the ranking of a fund’s MSCI ESG Fund Quality Score against the scores of other funds within the same peer group, as defined by the Thomson Reuters Lipper Global Classification. iShares International Preferred Stock ETF ranks in the 88th percentile within its peer group and in the 97th percentile within the global universe of all funds covered by MSCI ESG Fund Ratings.
