An Attractive Blend: High Quality and Low Volatility

High Quality

Exposure to US government debt, which carry very little credit risk

Low Volatility

Exposure to securities with a maturity between zero and one year translates to low duration risk i.e impact due to interest rate sensitivity

Merits of 0-1 year US Treasury Investment

A defensive portfolio allocation to balance equity risk, or to reduce interest rate sensitivity

Benefit from the relatively lower volatile short duration investment

Invest in the relatively high-quality US asset - Sovereign securities

Build fixed income asset in a dominant international reserve currency

Liquid, low cost beta exposure to short-dated dollar-denominated US government bonds

Product Structure

CME Approach

Note: It will not be a dedicated feeder fund structure and the Indian fund is open to invest in funds that meet the investment objective and strategy

Who can invest?

Global opportunity

Seeking to capture the current high yield of the US treasury, optimising the investment opportunity provided by the historic low levels of yield differential between the US and India sovereign bonds

Creation of USD asset

With limited duration sensitivity, intending to create a USD asset for funding a near term or defined expense without wanting to take any equity market linked volatility

Benefit from currency depreciation

Looking to gain dual exposure i.e. US treasury plus USD INR currency movement. Any further depreciation in the INR is expected to enhance returns (However, If INR appreciates it could have adverse effects)
