iShares Treasury Floating Rate Bond ETF

The iShares Treasury Floating Rate Bond ETF seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of U.S. Treasury floating rate bonds.

TFLO tracks a broad maturity market-value-selected and -weighted bond index of US Treasury floating rate securities.

The Federal Reserve has cut rates by roughly 100 bps in 2024, pushing down yields across the front end of the curve and leading investors to explore riskier alternatives. Floating Rate Notes, or FRNs, are short-term, low-risk treasury instruments with weekly rate resets tied to the 13-week T-bill rate. The iShares TFLO ETF exclusively holds FRNs, offering a zero-duration profile. Unlike funds employing complex risk strategies, TFLO consistently provides a stable yield (4.69% 30-day SEC) with virtually no volatility, even during market stress.
