FUNDS AT BLACKROCK



FUNDS THAT MATCH UP WITH INVESTING GOALS AND PREFERENCES

Each investor has a different story, and we are steadfast partners to our
clients in the US because we listen to every one of them. Our full range of
funds is one way we’re helping more investors build solid financial futures.

View all results View all funds View all results View all funds

Digital assets
High-growth potential with exposure to innovation

Digital assets, including cryptocurrencies, are increasingly capturing investor
attention as the financial landscape continues to evolve at a rapid pace. This
asset class has a different risk profile compared to stocks and bonds, so it
also offers diversification benefits.

See all digital asset funds See all digital asset funds
Cash alternatives
Bank accounts aren’t the only option

If you're looking for better rates of return on deposits than you’d get in an
ordinary bank account, cash funds may be an option to consider. They often
invest in very short-term bonds known as ‘money market instruments’, which are
essentially banks lending money to each other.

See cash alternatives See cash alternatives
Commodities
Broad exposure to a large basket of opportunities

From funds that invest in precious metals such as gold and silver, to energy
resources such as oil and natural gas, to agricultural goods such as wheat,
commodity funds offer several potential benefits to investors, including
portfolio diversification and a hedge against inflation. 

See all commodity funds See all commodity funds
Stocks
Buying shares for the long term

When you invest in stocks (also called equities), you buy a share in a company
and become a shareholder. Equities are typically more appropriate for long-term
investing – for those who can ride out the highs and lows of the market in
search of higher rewards.

See stock funds See stock funds
Bonds
Seeking stable, lower risk returns

Bonds, also known as fixed income securities, are issued by companies and
governments as a way of raising money. They’re basically an ‘I.O.U’ – designed
to provide a regular stream of income (which is normally a fixed amount) over a
specified period of time.

See bond funds See bond funds
Multi-asset
Diversifying your portfolio

A multi-asset strategy combines different types of assets – stocks, bonds, real
estate, or cash for example – to create a more nimble and broadly diversified
portfolio. Fund managers will balance asset classes to achieve particular
investment objectives.

See multi-asset funds See multi-asset funds
Real estate
Driven by the search for additional sources of return

While traditional assets like stocks and bonds are traded on the public markets,
alternative investment strategies such as real estate are less sensitive to the
movements of global markets. More and more investors are shifting to
alternatives to help them achieve their goals.

Transcript

I believe in capitalism, that in the long run it's the best economic model in
the world. But what disturbed me as I wrote this letter, we never talk about
retirement. It is not a conversation we're having, and that is why it's becoming
a bigger and bigger problem. If individuals had better information on how to
navigate it over their 30- or 40-year journey of work, they then can build the
adequacy.

Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal.

Carefully consider the Funds' investment objectives, risk factors, and charges
and expenses before investing. This and other information can be found in the
Funds' prospectuses or, if available, the summary prospectuses which may be
obtained visiting the iShares ETF and BlackRock Mutual Fund prospectus pages.
Read the prospectus carefully before investing.

 

Investing in commodity-related companies may increase volatility. Price
movements are outside of the Fund’s control and may be influenced by weather and
climate conditions, livestock disease, war, terrorism, political conflicts and
economic events, interest rates, currency and exchange rates, government
regulation and taxation. Commodity futures trading may be illiquid. In addition,
suspensions or disruptions of market trading in the commodities markets and
related futures markets may adversely affect the value of the Fund.

Funds that concentrate investments in specific industries, sectors, markets or
asset classes may underperform or be more volatile than other industries,
sectors, markets or asset classes and than the general securities market.

Real estate investment trusts ("REITs") are subject to changes in economic
conditions, credit risk and interest rate fluctuations.

International investing involves risks, including risks related to foreign
currency, limited liquidity, less government regulation and the possibility of
substantial volatility due to adverse political, economic or other developments.
These risks often are heightened for investments in emerging/ developing markets
or in concentrations of single countries.

There is no guarantee that dividends will be paid.
