About CUTRX

The Columbia U.S. Treasury Index Fund Institutional 2 Class is a mutual fund designed to track the performance of the U.S. Treasury bond market. Its primary aim is to replicate, before expenses, the price and yield results of a broad U.S. Treasury index, such as the Citigroup Bond U.S. Treasury Index or the FTSE US Government Bond Index, by investing predominantly in U.S. Treasury notes and bonds with maturities of at least one year. Classified within the intermediate government category, this fund typically maintains a portfolio duration between 3.5 and 6 years, balancing interest rate sensitivity and stability. A notable feature of the fund is its focus on debt obligations backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, which significantly lowers credit risk compared to other bond types. With over 270 holdings and total assets exceeding $900 million, it serves institutional and professional investors seeking broad exposure to U.S. government debt for portfolio diversification or risk management. The fund offers monthly dividend payouts and operates with a low expense ratio, emphasizing cost efficiency for long-term investors. Since its inception in 2012, the Columbia U.S. Treasury Index Fund Institutional 2 Class has played a significant role in the fixed income market, providing transparent, rules-based access to U.S. Treasury securities.
