iShares Infrastructure Active ETF, a BlackRock-managed exchange-traded fund, seeks to maximize long-term total returns through active investment in securities of infrastructure-related companies, including transportation infrastructure, energy storage and transportation, construction and engineering, communications equipment, gas utilities, electric utilities, multi-utilities, water utilities, and independent power and renewable electricity producers. The fund is organized as an actively managed, non-diversified series of BlackRock ETF Trust, trades under the ticker BILT on Cboe, and is advised by BlackRock Fund Advisors with subadvisory support from BlackRock International Limited and BlackRock (Singapore) Limited; BlackRock lists the fund’s inception date as July 29, 2025, and the fund is domiciled and managed from BlackRock’s U.S. platform in Princeton, New Jersey, with additional global investment support.
The ETF’s core offering is a globally diversified listed-infrastructure portfolio that typically holds about 50 to 60 securities and applies an at least 80% investment policy in infrastructure-related equity securities and related derivatives. Its portfolio spans major global markets and can include U.S. and foreign issuers, while limiting emerging-markets exposure to no more than 10% of net assets; reported holdings have included Union Pacific, Aena SME, Duke Energy, NextEra Energy, American Electric Power, Transurban, and National Grid, underscoring its exposure to transport, utilities, and energy networks.
Recent company and fund developments center on the ETF’s launch and early build-out in 2025, when BlackRock expanded its listed-infrastructure lineup with the introduction of BILT, positioning it as an actively managed infrastructure vehicle with a 0.60% expense ratio and global mandate. BlackRock’s materials and subsequent fund updates show continued portfolio reporting and asset growth into 2026, reflecting the fund’s operational expansion and ongoing market presence rather than a corporate reorganization or name change.
