New iShares ETFs on Xetra offer access to US government bonds
Since Thursday, two new Exchange Traded Funds from iShares are tradable via Xetra and Börse Frankfurt.
The two bond ETFs give investors the opportunity to participate in the performance of US dollar-denominated government bonds issued by the US government. Investors can choose between maturities of three to seven years and seven to ten years.
Both ETFs use a hedging strategy to minimize the exchange rate risk between the base currency of the index components and the euro.
