The iShares Interest Rate Hedged Long-Term Corporate Bond ETF (IGBH) holds long-term investment-grade corporate bonds with a focus on BBB/A credits and a weighted average maturity of 22 years. Despite having zero interest rate duration, it carries significant credit spread risk, especially since current BBB spreads are historically tight. This tightness increases the risk of losses if spreads widen during a recession or risk-off event. Due to high credit sensitivity and elevated macroeconomic risks, the ETF is rated a 'Sell'.
