iShares Core FTSE Global Infrastructure (AUD Hedged) ETF

iShares Core FTSE Global Infrastructure (AUD Hedged) ETF is an exchange-traded fund that provides exposure to a diversified portfolio of leading global infrastructure companies, with the unique feature of hedging currency exposure back to the Australian dollar. Its primary objective is to closely track the performance of the FTSE Developed Core Infrastructure 50/50 Index, fully hedged to AUD, thereby allowing Australian investors to participate in the growth and income of developed-market infrastructure assets without being directly impacted by foreign exchange fluctuations. The fund invests in listed equities across essential infrastructure sectors including utilities, transportation (airports, railroads, toll roads), and energy (pipelines, power generation), which are the backbone of modern economies. This focus offers access to stable and often income-generating businesses that provide critical public services. As a core infrastructure holding, the ETF’s diversified approach reduces single-asset risk and improves portfolio resilience, making it a prominent solution for gaining broad infrastructure exposure within a single trade. By holding the iShares Core FTSE Global Infrastructure (AUD Hedged) ETF, investors benefit from global diversification, currency risk management, and the defensive characteristics commonly associated with infrastructure assets.
