About PFF

The iShares Preferred & Income Securities ETF (PFF) provides investors with exposure to preferred stock, offering a unique combination of relatively stable income and lower volatility compared to common stocks. The fund tracks the ICE Exchange-Listed Preferred & Hybrid Securities Index, investing in a diversified portfolio of nearly 440 holdings across various sectors, with a focus on the financial industry. PFF can be a valuable addition to a portfolio, helping to boost yields and reduce risk, but should be used in moderation to avoid overexposure to the financial sector.
