IPFF
iShares International Preferred Stock ETFIPFF 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.
