DWS said its new ETF tracks the FTSE US Treasury Short Duration index, which references 67 fixed rate and floating rate US Treasury securities and T-Bills and has a yield-to-maturity of 0.12%.

Olivier Souliac, head of passive index strategy and analytics at DWS, said: “We aim to offer our clients a full range of fixed income exposures to meet all their asset allocation needs.

“This new ETF, which provides long US Treasury bond exposure but with ultra-short duration risk, provides investors with a low interest rate risk but improved yield alternative to cash.”
