In plain words
A corporate bond ETF owns bonds issued by companies. Investment-grade funds own firms with strong ratings; high-yield funds own weaker firms and pay more for the extra default risk.
ETFIQ counts 70 funds, at a median fee of 0.18%. Credit spread, the extra yield over Treasuries, is the main driver; duration matters too, with a median of 4.3 years across bond funds. ETFIQ reads each fund’s own bond list for credit mix and duration, so a fund called corporate is judged by what it owns.
