New Treasury ETFs Target Liquidity As Vanguard Expands Fixed-Income Lineup

Vanguard has once again broadened its fixed-income offerings, rolling out a pair of new<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs"> Treasury-focused ETFs</a> on the Nasdaq. The Vanguard Ultra-Short Treasury ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VGUS#NASDAQ">VGUS</a>) and the Vanguard 0-3 Month Treasury Bill ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VBIL#NASDAQ">VBIL</a>) are low-cost index ETFs that aim to manage liquidity and short-term fixed-income exposure while keeping costs minimal.



VGUS will track the Bloomberg Short Treasury Index, which includes U.S. Treasury securities maturing in under a year. Meanwhile, VBIL will follow the Bloomberg US. Treasury Bills 0-3 Months Index, providing exposure to the shortest-maturity Treasury bills available. Both ETFs have an estimated expense ratio of just 0.07%, reinforcing Vanguard's commitment to cost-effective investing.

"The goal is to provide investors with a more diverse product range and complement our existing lineup of active and passive funds," <a href="https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/vanguard-introduces-new-etfs-to-meet-investors-short-term-liquidity-needs-302373595.html">said </a>Sara Devereux, Global Head of Vanguard Fixed Income Group.



With short durations and low volatility, VGUS and VBIL aim to bridge the gap between money market funds and ultra-short-term bond funds. Devereux touts the new funds as "valuable tools for advisors and investors to build more precise and flexible portfolios." 



Vanguard is already a giant in the ETF space, with more than $2.5 trillion in assets under management across nearly 90 ETFs. Fixed-income products make up a significant portion of that, with 21 other bond ETFs, including the $123.7 billion Vanguard Total Bond Market ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BND#NASDAQ">BND</a>). 



The company has long been a leader in passive fixed-income investing, dating back to the launch of the first bond index fund in 1986.
