NEW YORK -- (Business Wire)

The U.S. Treasury today announced that two BlackRock iShares exchange traded funds (ETFs) will be offered among the investment options available under Trump Accounts, a federal initiative designed to enable a generation of American children to begin building wealth from birth.

“BlackRock is proud to support Trump Accounts. For generations, U.S. capital markets have been a powerful engine of growth and wealth creation,” said Larry Fink, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of BlackRock. “By giving younger Americans the opportunity to start investing earlier, Trump Accounts can help millions build long-term financial security, develop a greater stake in the future of the country, and share more directly in the growth and prosperity of the United States."

BlackRock’s iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV) and iShares Core S&P Total U.S. Stock Market ETF (ITOT) offer diversified exposure to many of America’s leading companies and the long-term growth potential of the U.S. economy. With expense ratios of 0.03%, both funds reflect BlackRock’s longstanding commitment to making investing more affordable.

“We’re honored iShares ETFs have been selected for the Trump Accounts program, reflecting our commitment to helping more Americans start investing earlier and participate in long-term growth,” said Elise Terry, Head of U.S. iShares at BlackRock. “Even small investments, started early, can compound meaningfully over time—this program helps make that first step more accessible. IVV and ITOT offer simple, low-cost exposure to the broad U.S. market, making them practical building blocks for long-term investors.”

BlackRock's participation in the program is complemented by the firm's philanthropic efforts to strengthen financial security and help families begin building wealth early in life. In March, the BlackRock Foundation announced a $1 million grant to Invest America to support public service campaigns focused on awareness, education, and enrollment in Trump Accounts. The Foundation has also supported children's savings initiatives, including a $3.75 million grant to NYC Kids RISE and a $1.15 million grant to establish The Early Wealth Partnership, which promotes engagement with CalKids, California's statewide children's savings account program.

In December, BlackRock committed to matching the federal government’s $1,000 contribution to Trump Accounts for eligible U.S. employees, helping families begin investing for the future from an early age.

The selected iShares ETFs are expected to become available through the program in the coming months following the official launch of Trump Accounts. To learn more, and to download the app and sign up for a Trump Account, visit www.trumpaccounts.gov.
