Global X U.S. Treasury Bond ETF (USTB)

Overview

The company operates as an investment fund specializing in debt securities and related financial instruments. With a strategic focus on maintaining a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of three years or less, the fund primarily allocates its resources to securities that promise short-term maturity. This investment strategy emphasizes flexibility, liquidity, and a conservative risk profile, catering to investors who seek relative safety and a moderate yield on their investments. The fund's commitment to investing at least 80% of its assets in debt securities and derivatives with similar economic characteristics underscores its conservative investment approach. Furthermore, the fund's allowance for up to 20% investment in foreign debt securities introduces a measured diversification strategy, tapping into both non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities and the emerging market potential while managing the associated risks.
