TBIL’s investment strategy centers on tracking the performance of the most recently issued 3-month U.S. Treasury bill, with at least 80% of assets invested in the index’s component security.
The portfolio consists of a single U.S. Treasury bill purchased monthly and held to maturity, providing direct exposure to short-term U.S. government debt with minimal credit risk.
The fund is structured as an ETF, offering daily liquidity and a transparent, low-cost vehicle for investors seeking capital preservation and current income.
The F/m US Treasury 3 Month Bill ETF (TBIL) provides investors with streamlined access to short-duration U.S. Treasury securities through a single-security, monthly rolling strategy. The fund’s substantial assets under management and consistent yield reflect strong demand for liquid, low-risk cash alternatives. TBIL’s structure offers institutional and individual investors a convenient mechanism to manage liquidity while earning competitive yields on U.S. government-backed instruments.
Ultra-short Treasury ETFs are designed to protect capital, not compound it, and once opportunity cost rises, they tend to be the first source of funding for new ideas. That’s why this move might show what happens when cash stops pulling its weight, or when something else just looks more attractive.
To be fair, the F/m US Treasury 3 Month Bill ETF does its job well. It holds a single, recently issued Treasury bill, rolls monthly, and offers daily liquidity with minimal credit risk. As of late January, the fund carried a yield just over 4%, traded essentially at net asset value, and managed more than $6 billion in assets, underscoring its role as an institutional cash tool. Performance, as expected, has been roughly flat over the past year.
Meanwhile, the rest of the portfolio leans toward longer-duration bonds and higher-volatility assets, including corporate credit and equities with asymmetric upside. In that framework, holding a sizable allocation to a cash-equivalent ETF can quickly become redundant. Liquidity is already available elsewhere, and incremental dollars earn more when put to work.
