US government bonds
Details
ETF description
This ETF invests in U.S. Treasury bonds with maturities between 7 and 10 years. Treasury bonds are considered low‑risk investments because they are backed by the U.S. government. The fund provides exposure to medium‑term government bonds, offering a balance between stability and potential for slightly higher yields compared to short‑term bonds.
This ETF may appeal to investors seeking a conservative investment option with moderate risk, aiming for stable returns while avoiding the higher volatility of equities. It could suit those looking to diversify their portfolio with a reliable source of income through government‑backed bonds while being comfortable with the interest rate risk associated with medium‑term bonds.
