About this ETF
The fund aims to generate a substantial current income stream while diligently safeguarding investors' principal. It achieves these objectives by committing a minimum of 80% of its total assets to debt instruments either directly issued or explicitly backed by the U.S. government, its various agencies, or associated entities. A core characteristic of its investment strategy is maintaining an average portfolio duration of three years or less, emphasizing shorter-term holdings.
