iShares III plc announced on Monday, September 15, 2026, that it will remove specific currency trading lines for twelve exchange‑traded funds from several European exchanges. The delistings affect the SIX Swiss Exchange, Xetra and the London Stock Exchange.
The ETFs impacted include the iShares Core Global Aggregate Bond UCITS ETF, iShares MSCI EM Small Cap UCITS ETF, iShares € Corp Bond ESG Paris‑Aligned Climate UCITS ETF, iShares € Covered Bond UCITS ETF, iShares Global Inflation Linked Govt Bond UCITS ETF, iShares S&P 500 Scored and Screened UCITS ETF and the iShares Core Global Aggregate Bond UCITS ETF USD (Dist) (ISIN IE00B3F81409), among others.
The share classes of the funds will remain operational, and investors can trade them on alternative venues. For example, the USD‑denominated trading line of the iShares Core Global Aggregate Bond UCITS ETF USD (Dist) will be removed from SIX, but the fund will continue to trade on the London Stock Exchange and will become available on BX Swiss from December 15, 2026. Additional BX Swiss listings for other ETFs are also slated to start on that date.
Shareholders with questions are directed to iShares regional offices in the United Kingdom, Germany or Switzerland. A full shareholder letter will be posted on the Financial Conduct Authority’s National Storage Mechanism website and on iShares’ own site.
