Overview

The iShares Core Equity ETF Portfolio is the 100% stock option in the iShares suite. Start with the asset allocation you can hold through changing markets, then compare funds built for that target. BlackRock automatically rebalances this portfolio as needed.

Its current management fee fell to 0.17% on December 18, 2025. The latest 0.20% management expense ratio (MER) and 0.01% trading expense ratio (TER) cover the period ended December 31, 2025, so the reported costs largely predate the fee cut. Distributions are scheduled quarterly, which does not measure the fund's return.
