Description: FTSD Liberty Short Duration U.S. January 01, 2026
The Franklin Liberty Short Duration U.S. Government ETF (FTSD) commits at least 80% of its net assets to securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies, or instrumentalities. To achieve its short-duration objective, the fund may also employ interest-rate derivatives-primarily Treasury futures and options on bond futures-to fine-tune exposure and manage cash flow.
Key metrics (as of the latest filing) include an expense ratio of 0.20%, a weighted-average maturity of roughly 1.2 years, and a 30-day SEC yield near 4.5%, reflecting the current level of short-term Treasury rates. The ETF’s performance is highly sensitive to Federal Reserve policy moves; a 25 bp shift in the Fed Funds target can move the fund’s yield by roughly 5–7 bps, given its low duration. Additionally, the fund’s net assets (≈ $1.2 bn) provide ample liquidity, making it a practical cash-management tool for institutional and retail investors seeking a low-risk, high-quality alternative to money-market funds.
