Our read on AGGM
AGovernment and credit, nothing else: GBF holds Treasuries and investment-grade corporate bonds across the maturity spectrum, tracking a Bloomberg index since 2007 for 0.20% a year.
The fund seeks to track an index of U.S. dollar-denominated government and investment-grade corporate bonds, providing diversified fixed-income exposure across sectors and maturities.
Why people hold it
- A 0.20% fee, below the typical core bond ETF in its category.
- Tracks the Bloomberg U.S. Government/Credit Bond Index tightly, one of the cleanest index implementations in a crowded core-bond field.
- Pays monthly, so income arrives on a steady cadence rather than quarterly.
- Live since 2007 under the iShares roof, with a full market cycle of history behind the mandate.
Worth knowing
- It trades lightly next to the category's giants. Limit orders matter more here than with the household-name bond funds.
- Broad total-bond rivals undercut it on fee: BND, SPAB and SCHZ each run 0.03%, though their indexes also include securitized debt.
- Rate risk is the main lever. The index spans sectors and maturities, so prices move inversely to yields, and longer bonds move most.
