In plain English
iShares PLC - iShares Global High Yield Corp Bond UCITS ETF Accum Shs Hedged USD is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) from iShares, launched in 2025.
It tracks the Markit iBoxx Global Developed Markets Liquid High Yield Capped Index.
You buy and sell it through a share-dealing account or platform during stock-market hours, like a share.
Its ongoing charge is 0.61% a year — about £61 a year on every £10,000 invested, taken from the fund's value rather than billed to you.
Income from its investments is reinvested inside the fund, so it shows up as a rising price rather than cash paid to you.
It is currency-hedged to US dollars, not to the pound: it aims to remove most of the effect of exchange-rate moves against US dollars, so a holder who counts in pounds still has currency risk.
Corporate & other bonds: Loans to companies and other borrowers, which usually pay more interest than government bonds in exchange for more risk.
