About BDOIX
The iShares MSCI Total International Index Fund Institutional Shares is a mutual fund designed to provide broad exposure to international equity markets, excluding the United States. Its primary objective is to match the performance of the MSCI All Country World ex US Index, a widely recognized benchmark that represents large- and mid-cap stocks across both developed and emerging markets outside the U.S.. The fund achieves this through a passively managed, index-tracking strategy, investing in a diversified basket of nearly 2,000 global companies, encompassing approximately 85% of the investable international equity universe.
Key features include a low net expense ratio, appealing to institutional investors seeking cost efficiency. The fund’s top holdings span leading multinationals such as Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, Tencent, SAP, Nestlé, Alibaba, and ASML, offering investors broad sector and geographic diversification. By providing access to a comprehensive mix of non-U.S. equities, the fund plays a critical role in strategic asset allocation and global portfolio diversification for institutional market participants.
