- Goldman Sachs Access Investment Grade Corporate Bond ETF (GIGB) is an exchange-traded fund that seeks to track the performance, before fees and expenses, of the FTSE Goldman Sachs Investment Grade Corporate Bond Index. The fund invests at least 80% of its assets in securities that compose the index, which measures investment-grade, U.S. dollar-denominated corporate bonds meeting specific liquidity and fundamental criteria, including a minimum issuance size of $250 million and at least two bonds per issuer; issuers are ranked within industry groups by changes in operating margin and leverage, with those showing deterioration reduced in weight by half, followed by duration adjustments to align with the broader FTSE USBIG Corporate Index. Core holdings emphasize broad-maturity investment-grade corporate bonds from sectors such as banks (24.9%), consumer noncyclical (15.3%), technology (8.3%), electric utilities (9.6%), and communications (7.8%), with top positions including JPMorgan Chase & Co. 5.571%, National Bank of Canada 4.5%, UBS Group AG 4.194%, Boeing Company 2.95%, and Dominion Energy Inc. 3.375%; the portfolio features approximately 1,560 holdings, a weighted average maturity of 10.76 years, option-adjusted duration of 6.64 years, and a net expense ratio of 0.08%. Launched on June 6, 2017, and listed on NYSE Arca, GIGB targets investors seeking fixed-income exposure to U.S. and non-U.S. corporate issuers in developed markets, with assets under management of approximately $675-$679 million as of mid-2025.
In recent developments, Goldman Sachs Asset Management expanded its fixed-income ETF offerings in June 2025 with the launch of two new active bond strategies, the Goldman Sachs Core Bond ETF (GBND) and Goldman Sachs Corporate Bond ETF (GIGL), leveraging the firm's $1.8 trillion fixed-income platform to meet demand for adaptive active management in core and corporate bonds. Additionally, on December 1, 2025, Goldman Sachs announced an agreement to acquire Innovator Capital Management, a defined-outcome ETF provider managing $28 billion in assets across 159 strategies, for approximately $2 billion in cash and equity, positioning Goldman Sachs as a top-10 active ETF provider upon expected closure in Q2 2026. The Goldman Sachs Access Investment Grade Corporate Bond ETF is issued by Goldman Sachs ETF Trust and managed by Goldman Sachs Asset Management L.P., with administrative, advisory, and custodial services provided by The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation.
