The SPDR Bloomberg 3-12 Month T-Bill ETF offers a low-risk way to generate yield through short-term Treasury Bills issued by the US government. BILS tracks the performance of the Bloomberg 3-12 Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index and currently has $2.8 billion in assets under management. BILS provides near-guaranteed protection against credit risk and offers a short duration profile to protect against interest-rate risk. However, its total return potential may be lower in a falling rate environment.
BILS is an ETF that tracks the Bloomberg 3-12 Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index, investing primarily in U.S. Treasury Bills with maturities between 3 and 12 months. BILS serves as a cash parking vehicle, offering a slightly higher duration compared to its competitors. It has an AUM of $2.8 billion, a 30-Day SEC Yield of 5.2%, a low expense ratio of 0.135%, and a duration of 0.38 years.
Longer duration Treasuries are in turmoil, but the front end has been relatively stable. While issuance will ramp up into the year-end, there's enough demand to absorb incoming bill supply. At ~5%, low-cost T-bill ETFs offer a compelling balance of yield and principal protection.
It's no secret that we are currently in a high interest rate environment. The Federal Funds rate, the benchmark rate in the U.S. set by the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC), currently sits between the range of 5.00% and 5.25%.
Fed funds rate is now above 5%. The yield offered by BILS from a portfolio of T-bills is 5%.
