Overview
Description
The iShares U.S. Infrastructure ETF is an exchange-traded fund designed to track the performance of an index composed of equities of U.S. companies with significant infrastructure exposure. Its primary function is to provide targeted access to both owners and operators of infrastructure, such as utilities and railroads, as well as enablers like construction, materials, and engineering firms. This dual exposure allows investors to gain diversified participation in sectors poised to benefit from domestic infrastructure development and investment.
The ETF features a broad sector allocation, with notable concentrations in utilities, industrials, materials, and energy, reflecting the diverse landscape of U.S. infrastructure assets. The underlying index utilizes an equal weighting approach across its components to minimize individual company risk and enhance diversification. The fund’s structure and methodology make it a relevant instrument for those seeking a thematic approach to infrastructure within the U.S. equity market, capturing trends driven by government spending, modernization, and economic growth initiatives related to public and private infrastructure projects.
