The underlying index “measures the performance of a select group of preferred stocks from non-U.S. developed market issuers and traded in non-U.S. developed market venues.” BlackRock does not provide much information on what it takes to be a member of this “select group” and even less information about yield, performance, or history of the index. . . . → Read More: New iShares International Preferred ETF Is Mostly Canadian
