Description

UBS Core BBG US Liquid Corp UCITS ETF hEUR acc tracks the issuer-declared index: Bloomberg US Liquid Corporates Total Return. The declared annual cost (TER) is 0.09%, plus 0.06% in transaction costs estimated by the issuer in the KID. Replication is physical replication: optimised for equities, sampled for bonds. The fund has assets of about 109 million euro, was launched on 30 May 2014 and is domiciled in Luxembourg.

The fund’s objective — in the issuer’s words

The Fund is passively managed and will take proportionate exposure on the components of Bloomberg US Liquid Corporates™ Index (Total Return) using a stratified approach (stratified sampling strategy) by investing in a representative sample of components of the index selected by the portfolio manager using a 'portfolio optimisation' technique. The proportionate exposure by the Fund to the component securities will be substantially achieved either through direct investment or through the use of derivatives or through a combination of both techniques. The Fund may further hold securities which are not comprised in its Index if the portfolio manager believes this to be appropriate considering the Fund's investment objective and the investment restrictions or other factors. The Fund will invest its net assets predominantly in bonds, transferable securities, money market instruments, units of undertakings for collective investment, deposits with credit institutions, structured notes listed or dealt in on a regulated market and other assets eligible under the prospectus. The Fund will not enter into any securities lending. Sustainability risks are not systematically integrated as they are not considered as part of the Index selection process. The return of the fund depends mainly on the performance of the tracked index. Fund income is not paid out, but instead will be reinvested. The exchange rate risk of the share class currency is to a large extent hedged against the currency of the fund.

Currency-hedged share class: our figures are computed on the issuer’s NAV, where the hedge is applied at the daily fixing. Comparison sites using the exchange price may show returns and volatility that differ by 1–2 points: on hedged classes the price-vs-NAV gap is structurally wider and grows with the length of the window. Not a data error — a measurement convention. Details in the methodology.

Drawdown — distance from previous peak

This isn’t the return: it shows how far the fund is below its previous peak. 0% = you’re at the peak; below zero = how much you’re down and haven’t recovered yet.

From month-end NAVs, over the fund’s full history, on the series shown in the chart (dividends reinvested where declared). Deeper colour = larger move.
Source: UBS. Issuer-declared historical series; inflation: Eurostat and national statistical institutes, latest available July 2026 — for later days the index stays at the last published value (institutes publish with a few weeks’ lag). The «adjusted for inflation» view expresses value in today’s purchasing power for the selected country; volatility always stays nominal, as elsewhere on the site (deflating it would add artificial swings caused by the monthly cadence of the price index). Past performance is not indicative of future results: these are facts, not a recommendation.

Tracking difference — fund vs index

How much the fund returned above (+) or below (−) its index, year by year. It measures the actual deviation: the combined effect of costs (TER and transaction), securities-lending revenue and replication optimisations — which is why it can beat the TER. Tracking difference was positive in 0 of the last 10 calendar years: a past observation, not an indication of future outperformance.
