The Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index, which this asset class tracks, was originally created by Lehman Brothers in 1986 and survived the firm's 2008 bankruptcy when Bloomberg acquired the index business. The 'Agg', as it is known, covers over 10,000 US investment-grade bonds — including government, corporate, mortgage-backed, and asset-backed securities — making it the most comprehensive single measure of the US investment-grade fixed income market. Many professional investors use this index as the baseline for bond portfolio construction, measuring their performance relative to it much as equity managers measure themselves against the S&P 500.
