Harvest Fixed Income ETFs provide investors the opportunity to invest in intermediate to long-duration US Treasury bonds, and short-term treasury bills (T-Bills) of the Government of Canada. These are among the safest long-term and short-term bonds, as they are backed by the full faith and credit of the US and Canadian, Governments, respectively. To provide investors access to intermediate to longer-duration US Treasury bonds, we assembled two separate portfolios of US Treasury ETFs, one targeting exposure to intermediate duration US Treasury bonds and the other targeting exposure to long duration US Treasury bonds.
