Our read on IBIG
BMost target-maturity bond funds hand you a fixed nominal payout. IBIG fills the same dated slot with US Treasury inflation-protected bonds maturing in 2030, so the principal underneath moves with CPI. A ladder rung with an inflation clause.
The fund is designed to follow an index of U.S. Treasury inflation-protected securities that mature in 2030.
Why people hold it
- The inflation-linked corner of a mostly nominal category: it follows the ICE 2030 Maturity US Inflation-Linked Treasury Index, so TIPS principal adjusts with CPI while the maturity year stays fixed.
- 0.10% a year, level with the median target-maturity bond fund, for a portfolio of US Treasury paper. No credit spread, no currency layer.
- Everything inside matures in the same year, so duration winds down as 2030 approaches and the fund stacks cleanly alongside other dated rungs such as IBTJ or BSCU.
Worth knowing
- Thinly traded and small next to the nominal iBonds funds. The bid-ask spread is part of what you pay, especially in size.
- Only a handful of TIPS mature in any single year, so this is a short list of bonds, not a broad index.
- Payouts arrive quarterly and ride on inflation adjustments, so they are uneven. When inflation runs cool, nominal Treasuries of the same maturity can out-yield TIPS.
