What they Are – How they Work?
[By Staff Reporters]
Back in January 2014, the US Treasury announced that it would hold an inaugural Floating Rate Notes (FRNs) auction this year, making FRNs the first new Treasury security since they introduced Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) more than 15 years ago.
Complimentary Products
FRNs will complement Treasury’s existing suite of securities, which include Treasury bills, notes, bonds, and TIPS.
The Treasury’s introduction of FRNs will provide a number of benefits to taxpayers including assisting Treasury in managing the maturity profile of the nation’s marketable debt outstanding, expanding Treasury’s investor base and, most importantly, helping to finance the government at the lowest cost over time.
Assessment
FRNs are a unique and attractive option for investors because the security features an interest payment that can adjust over time.
