What is IHYU?
IHYU is iShares $ High Yield Corporate Bond UCITS ETF, the European-listed product BestFolio uses when translating HYG. Most targets are UCITS ETFs; some commodity and leveraged targets are UCITS-eligible ETCs or ETPs instead. Product structure and retail eligibility must be checked for the exact ISIN.
USD high yield corporate bonds. Not IHYG, which is the EUR high yield fund. The source ticker has 1x exposure and the mapped target has 1x exposure, so BestFolio can flag leverage differences during allocation translation.
