Written from the latest data on this page. General information only, not financial advice.
How diversified is iShares S&P 500 AUD Hedged ETF?
iShares S&P 500 AUD Hedged ETF holds 497 securities, and its ten largest positions make up 38.6% of the fund, close to the 37.6% typical of United States equity funds. That makes it moderately diversified.
Its country exposure is almost entirely United States (100.0%), and its biggest sector is Information Technology at 36.1%, based on holdings as at 2 Sept 2026.
Which ETFs does IHVV double up with most?
IHVV shares the most holdings with Betashares Geared US Equities Currency Hedged Complex ETF (GGUS) (98% overlap), iShares S&P 500 ETF (IVV) (98% overlap) and Vanguard S&P 500 US Shares Index ETF (V500) (98% overlap). Overlap is the share of the portfolio the two funds hold in common, looking through to the underlying securities.
At 98%, owning both IHVV and GGUS would mostly double up on the same investments rather than spread your money further. Of these, IVV has the lowest fee, at 0.04% a year against 0.10% for IHVV.
How is iShares S&P 500 AUD Hedged ETF managed – active or passive?
iShares S&P 500 AUD Hedged ETF is passively managed: it follows an index and holds what that index holds, rather than relying on a manager's stock picks.
Among United States equity funds, active funds charge a median 0.43% a year and index funds 0.32%.
What will I pay in fees for IHVV?
IHVV charges a management fee of 0.10% a year, about $10 for every $10,000 invested. That is cheaper than 94% of the 471 ASX ETFs we track, where the median fee is 0.44%. Among United States equity funds, the median is 0.35%.
Lower-cost funds with a similar focus include iShares S&P 500 ETF (IVV) at 0.04%, Vanguard US Total Market Shares Index ETF (VTS) at 0.03% and Vanguard All-World ex US Shares Index ETF (VEU) at 0.04%.
The fee is taken from the fund's assets and is already reflected in its returns. You'll also pay brokerage when you buy or sell, and the bid-ask spread, which has averaged 0.03% for IHVV.
Does iShares S&P 500 AUD Hedged ETF follow a theme?
No. iShares S&P 500 AUD Hedged ETF is a broad equity fund: it aims to cover a wide slice of its market (United States) rather than one theme or sector. Its largest sector, Information Technology, is 36.1% of the fund.
What is under the hood of IHVV?
As at 2 Sept 2026, IHVV's largest holding is Ishares Core S&p ETF Trust (99.9%). Some holdings are other ETFs, which we look through to their own holdings when measuring exposure and overlap.
It follows an index. Most broad share indices weight companies by market size, so the largest companies take the biggest share; the exact rules for IHVV's index are in the issuer's PDS. Its top 10 weighting of 38.6% compares with 37.6% for similar funds.
How well has iShares S&P 500 AUD Hedged ETF performed?
Based on its category, iShares S&P 500 AUD Hedged ETF aims to grow your capital in line with the index it tracks.
To 23 Oct 2026, with distributions reinvested, it returned 14.4% over 1 year (median 6.6%; ranked 3 of 27), 21.8% a year over 3 years (median 16.2% a year; ranked 4 of 18) and 10.5% a year over 5 years (median 12.2% a year; ranked 8 of 11). The medians and rankings compare it with United States equity funds. Since listing in 2014 it has returned 12.0% a year.
Tracking difference is the gap between a fund's return and its index's return. We don't hold index returns, so we can't measure it for IHVV; the issuer reports it in the monthly fact sheet. As a guide, a well-run index fund trails its index by about its fee, here 0.10% a year, and a much bigger gap is a warning sign.
