Overview
The fund is structured to provide a strategic investment in the U.S. Treasury securities market. It focuses on maintaining a significant alignment with its underlying index, investing a minimum of 80% of its assets directly in the component securities of this index. Additionally, the fund ensures that at least 90% of its assets are allocated to U.S. Treasury securities that are deemed beneficial for accurately tracking the index. The underlying index itself is weighted by market value, taking into account the total amounts outstanding, adjusted for amounts currently held by the Federal Reserve's System Open Market Account, and factoring in the securities' price along with accrued interest. Accrued interest is calculated on the assumption of next-day settlement, further enhancing the fund's ability to deliver timely and accurate investment returns.
