Our read on each fund

ETF.net Research

IBIEBiShares iBonds Oct 2028 Term TIPS ETF

VTPAVanguard Total Inflation-Protected Securities ETF

In short

IBIE No data

VTP Vanguard's ETF answer for the whole TIPS curve. It tracks a market-value-weighted index of Treasury inflation-linked bonds with at least a year left to run, charges five basis points, and opened for business in 2025.

Stated mandate

IBIE No data

VTP The Fund passively tracks the full market of U.S. Treasury inflation-protected public obligations through the ICE U.S. Treasury Inflation Linked Bond Index.

Why people hold it

IBIE No data

  • VTP Five basis points: under half the typical fund in its Treasury peer group, and well below the 0.12% charged by broad TIPS rival SPIP.
  • Full-curve coverage. The index is market value weighted and takes inflation-protected Treasuries with at least one year to maturity, no upper limit, so no single maturity slice bet.ice.com
  • Vanguard's other inflation-linked ETF stops below five years to maturity. This one is the long-end-included sibling, in the same low-cost index wrapper.vanguard.com
  • The inflation link sits inside the bonds, not in a strategy overlay: principal and coupons are indexed to consumer prices, and the fund passes income through quarterly.vanguard.com

Worth knowing

IBIE No data

  • VTP Owning the long end cuts both ways. Real-rate moves hit a full-maturity TIPS portfolio harder than a sub-five-year one, so expect more price movement.ice.comvanguard.com
  • A 2025 launch means a short track record and thinner trading than the long-established TIPS funds, which can show up as wider bid-ask spreads.
  • Payouts move with inflation adjustments rather than a fixed rate, and Vanguard discloses that a distribution can include return of capital.vanguard.com
