Fund Description

Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in the equity securities of infrastructure-related companies or derivatives with similar economic characteristics. The Fund currently considers “infrastructure-related companies” to include, without limitation, transportation infrastructure, construction and engineering, electric utilities, multi-utilities, water utilities, independent power and renewable electricity producers, telecommunications services, marine, road and rail, equity real estate investments, and media, as identified by one or more widely recognized market indexes or rating group indexes, and/ or as defined by Fund management.
To determine the Fund’s investable universe, Fund management will first seek to screen out certain issuers based on environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) criteria determined by BlackRock, subject to the considerations noted below. Such screening criteria principally includes: (i) issuers that derive more than zero percent of revenue from the production of controversial weapons; (ii) issuers that derive more than zero percent of revenue from the production of civilian firearms; (iii) issuers that derive more than zero percent of revenue from direct involvement in the production of nuclear weapons or nuclear weapon components or delivery platforms, or the provision of auxiliary services related to nuclear weapons; (iv) issuers that derive more than zero percent of revenue from the production of tobacco-related products; (v) issuers that derive more than five percent of revenue from thermal coal generation, unless such issuers have disclosed certain commitments regarding greenhouse gas emissions and derive less than twenty-five percent of revenue from coal-based power generation; (vi) issuers that derive more than five percent of revenue from thermal coal mining; (vii) issuers that derive more than five percent of revenue from oil sands extraction; and (viii) issuers identified as violators of the United Nations Global Compact, which are globally accepted principles covering corporate behavior in the areas of human rights, labor, environment, and anti-corruption. The Fund relies on one or more third-party ratings agencies to identify issuers for purposes of the above screening criteria. Third-party rating agencies may base the above screening criteria on an estimate when revenue for a covered business activity is not disclosed by the issuer or publicly available.
The Fund’s screening criteria is measured at the time of investment and is dependent upon information and data that may be incomplete, inaccurate, unavailable or estimated. Where the Fund’s criteria looks solely to third-party ratings or data, issuers are only screened to the extent such ratings or data have been assigned or made available by the third parties. This screening criteria is subject to change over time at BlackRock’s discretion.
BlackRock next looks to the targets and indicators for each SDG and identifies those goals that are supported by sustainable infrastructure. With respect to its equity investments, BlackRock intends to invest only in companies that align with and advance at least one of the SDGs. BlackRock intends to focus on SDGs related to (i) good health and well-being, (ii) clean water and sanitation, (iii) affordable and clean energy, (iv) industry, innovation and infrastructure, (v) sustainable cities and communities, and (vi) climate action. BlackRock may not consider all SDGs when making investment decisions and there may be limitations with respect to the availability of investments that address certain SDGs. The Fund may gain indirect exposure (through, including but not limited to, derivatives and investments in other investment companies) to issuers with exposures that are inconsistent with the screening and SDG alignment criteria used by BlackRock. Moreover, there is no guarantee that all equity securities held by the Fund will align with the SDGs at all times. The assessment of the level of alignment in each activity may be based on percentage of earnings, a defined total earnings threshold, or any connection to a restricted activity regardless of the amount of earnings received. Where disclosure for segment level earnings are unavailable, Fund management will use revenue as the primary metric.
The companies are then assessed by BlackRock based on their ability to manage risks and opportunities including those associated with the infrastructure theme and their ESG risk and opportunity credentials, such as their leadership and governance framework, ability to strategically manage longer-term issues surrounding ESG and the potential impact this may have on a company’s financials. This ESG assessment is built into the multi -factor risk model described below.
Fund management utilizes a multi-factor risk model that leverages the team’s deep fundamental knowledge by incorporating their views on micro risk factors such as industry trends, geographical sub markets, asset condition,
revenue risk, balance sheet and debt management strength, management insights, and other idiosyncratic factors influencing that security. The team considers factors in the following six categories:
1) Structural risk — risk related to specific real assets sub sectors, companies’ operational structure or policy making; factors are split into three risk sub-groups, i.e. industry, entity and regulatory risk
2) Asset risk — factors include micro fundamentals, physical features and revenue risk
3) Financial risk — factors include degree of financial leverage, interest coverage, maturity duration, fixed versus floating debt, pay-out ratio and free float
4) Management risk — qualitative assessment of executive management teams
5) ESG risk — assessment of environmental, social and governance issues based on BlackRock’s proprietary scoring model
6) Other risks — discrete single stock factors not captured by any of the above categories.
The equity securities in which the Fund invests primarily consist of common stock, but may also include preferred stock. From time to time, the Fund may invest in shares of companies through “new issues” or initial public offerings (“IPOs”). The Fund may also purchase convertible securities. The Fund may invest in issuers of any capitalization.
The Fund may invest in an unlimited amount in securities of foreign issuers, including those in emerging markets.
The Fund may use derivatives, including options, futures, swaps (including, but not limited to, total return swaps, some of which may be referred to as contracts for difference) and forward contracts, both to seek to increase the return of the Fund and to hedge (or protect) the value of its assets against adverse movements in currency exchange rates, interest rates and movements in the securities markets.
