Index history does not represent trades that have actually been executed and therefore may under or over compensate for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as illiquidity. No representation is being made that an actual investment in accordance with the above will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to the index history. Indexes are unmanaged and do not reflect the payment of transaction costs, advisory fees or expenses that are associated with an investment in an investable product. An index’s performance is not illustrative of an investable product’s performance. Indexes are not securities in which direct investments can be made.
Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal.

Index-related disclosure
In order to meet its investment objective, each iShares® fund will seek to achieve a return which reflects the return of its benchmark index as published by the relevant index provider. While index providers do provide descriptions of what each benchmark index is designed to achieve, index providers do not generally provide any warranty or accept any liability in relation to the quality, accuracy or completeness of data in respect of their benchmark indices, nor any guarantee that the published indices will be in line with their described benchmark index methodologies. Errors in respect of the quality, accuracy and completeness of the data may occur from time to time.
In addition, apart from scheduled rebalances, index providers may carry out additional ad hoc rebalances to their benchmark indices in order to, for example, correct an error in the selection of index constituents. Where the benchmark index of a fund is rebalanced and the fund in turn rebalances its portfolio to bring it in line with its benchmark index, any transaction costs arising from such portfolio rebalancing will be borne by the fund and, by extension, its unitholders.
Therefore, errors and additional ad hoc rebalances carried out by an index provider to a fund’s benchmark index may increase the costs of the fund.
There is no assurance that a fund’s benchmark index will continue to be calculated and published on the basis described in the fund’s prospectus or that it will not be amended significantly. The past performance of each benchmark index is not a guide to future performance.
The iShares ETFs are not connected, sponsored, endorsed, issued, sold or promoted by Bloomberg Finance L.P. and its affiliates, including Bloomberg Index Services, Limited (“Bloomberg”), Cohen & Steers Capital Management Inc., London Stock Exchange Group plc and its group undertakings (“LSE Group”, ICE Data Indices, LLC., ICE Benchmark Administration Limited, Jantzi Research Inc., Markit Indices Limited, Morningstar, Inc., MSCI Inc., MSCI ESG Research and Bloomberg, NASDAQ OMX Group Inc., NYSE FactSet or S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC.

BlackRock Asset Management Canada Limited is not affiliated with the companies listed above.
The Prospectus contains a more detailed description of the limited relationship the companies have with BlackRock Asset Management Canada Limited and any related ETFs.
Sustainability characteristics disclosure
For funds with an investment objective that include the integration of ESG criteria, there may be corporate actions or other situations that may cause the fund or index to passively hold securities that may not comply with ESG criteria.

The information displayed on this website may not include all of the screens that apply to the relevant index or the relevant fund.

Performance related disclosure
Prior to July 1, 2012, the investment objective of iShares Emerging Markets Fundamental Index ETF ("CWO") was to replicate, to the extent possible, the performance of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. Consequently, performance prior to July 1, 2012 for CWO may have been materially different than it would have been under the current respective investment objectives. Inception date is the date of the first subscription for units of the fund and the first calculation of net asset value per unit.
Prior to July 9, 2009, the investment objective of iShares S&P/TSX Canadian Dividend Aristocrats Index ETF ("CDZ") was to replicate, to the extent possible, the performance of the Mergent’s Canadian Dividend & Income Achievers Index. Consequently, performance prior to July 7, 2009 for CDZ may have been materially different than it would have been under the current respective investment objectives. Inception date is the date of the first subscription for units of the fund and the first calculation of net asset value per unit.
Prior to September 27, 2013, the investment objective of iShares Global Monthly Dividend Index ETF (CAD-Hedged) ("CYH") was to replicate, to the extent possible, the performance of the Zack’s Global Multi-Asset Income Index. Consequently, performance prior to September 27, 2013 for CYH may have been materially different than it would have been under the current respective investment objectives. Inception date is the date of the first subscription for units of the fund and the first calculation of net asset value per unit.
Prior to November 15, 2005, the investment objective of each of XIC, XSB (formerly, XGV), XSP and XIN was to replicate, to the extent possible, the performance of, respectively: S&P®/TSX® 60 Capped Index; the return of a bond issued by the Government of Canada with a five-year term to maturity; S&P 500 Index; and MSCI EAFE Index.

However, due to changes in the applicability of certain tax rules, most income trusts were expected to reorganize into corporations before January 1, 2011. The effect of such reorganizations would have been to significantly reduce the diversification of the Index. As a result, the unitholders of XTR voted at a special meeting of unitholders held on August 23, 2010 to change the investment objective of the XTR to its current investment objective. Consequently, performance prior to September 1, 2010 for XTR may have been materially different than it would have been under the current investment objective.

IBIT: Investing involves a high degree of risk, including possible loss of principal.

Investing in digital assets involves significant risks due to their price volatility and the potential for loss, theft, or compromise of private keys. The value of the ETF is closely tied to acceptance, industry developments, and governance changes, making them susceptible to market sentiment. Digital assets represent a new and rapidly evolving industry, and the value of the units depend on their acceptance. Changes in the governance of a digital asset network may not receive sufficient support from users and miners, which may negatively affect that digital asset network’s ability to grow and respond to challenges. Investing in the ETF comes with risks that could impact the ETF’s value, including largescale sales by major investors, security threats like breaches and hacking, negative sentiment among speculators, and competition from central bank digital currencies and financial initiatives using blockchain technology. A disruption of the internet or a digital asset network could affect the ability to transfer digital assets and, consequently, could impact their value.
