BlackRock GNMA boasts a well-resourced team and a thorough process, but its investment niche within the intermediate government Morningstar Category has attracted compelling low-cost passive alternatives for government mortgage exposure in recent years. This eroded edge underpins a downgrade of its Process rating to Average, and it receives a Morningstar Analyst Rating of Neutral across all share classes.
