What to know about the iShares ILB ETF
The iShares ILB ETF provides investors with exposure to the performance of a segment of the Australian bond market comprised of inflation-linked fixed income securities.
According to our most recent data, the ILB ETF had $511.79 million of money invested. With ILB’s total funds under management (FUM) figure over $100 million, the ETF meets our team’s minimum investment criteria for FUM levels. As a general rule, our team draws the line at $100 million for ETFs in the Fixed interest – Australia sector because we believe that, relative to smaller ETFs, achieving this amount of FUM lowers the chance that the ETF issuer will close the ETF.

The BetaShares POU ETF – key points
The BetaShares POU ETF provides investors with exposure to the performance of the British pound relative to the Australian dollar.
With our numbers for July 2022, POU’s FUM stood at $13 million. Given it has less than $100 million invested, ask yourself (or your adviser) if the ETF is still too small (and if you should wait to buy into it). If you’re concerned the ETF might not be established enough, compare it alongside one of the other Index sector ETFs, using our full list of ETFs.
A look at the POU ETF fee load?
BetaShares, the ETF issuer, charges a yearly management fee of 0.45% for the POU ETF. Meaning, if you invest $2,000 for a full year from now you can expect to pay a management fee of around $9.00.
This management fee is below the average for all ETFs on our Best ETFs Australia list of ETFs. However, you might still be able to find a cheaper ETF for less.
