IDFC Mutual Fund (MF) is set to launch India's first international debt fund, the IDFC US Treasury Bond 0-1 Year FOF (fund of funds).
With this international debt fund, Indian retail investors can now have access to diversify their investments and invest in ultra-safe, currently high-yield US treasury securities.
They can also use this FOF as a hedge against their exposure to the US dollar (USD).
In 2022, the 1-year US treasury yields have increased from 0.38% to 4.65%, making it a good time to invest in US debt instruments.
It gives investors an opportunity to diversify beyond India, and into US treasurys which are seen as a safe-haven asset in times of economic uncertainty.
