BlackRock Expands Access to U.S. Leveraged Loan Market with Index ETF

March 4, 2026-Provides exposure to a traditionally hard-to-reach fixed income sector
BlackRock today announced the launch of the iShares Broad USD Floating Rate Loan ETF (CBOE: USLN), the firm's first index-based ETF providing access to U.S. dollar-denominated leveraged loans.

The U.S. leveraged loan market has grown to $1.4 trillion - now similar in size to the high yield bond market-offering greater opportunity for scalable, index-based exposure.1

USLN seeks to track the Morningstar LSTA US Leveraged Loan Broad Select Index and invests primarily in senior secured loans, a historically hard-to-reach fixed income sector. The ETF aims to enhance portfolio income while offering reduced interest rate sensitivity and added diversification compared with traditional fixed income markets.
