New Index Description


The Index is a multi-security fixed income index that attempts to track U.S. Treasury bonds with a maturity of 25 years or greater.  Bonds eligible for inclusion must: be issued by the U.S. Treasury; have a maturity of 25 years or greater at issuance; be denominated in U.S. Dollars; be an either callable or non-callable issue; and have a fixed, non-zero coupon.  The Index rebalances monthly, after the close of trading on the last business day of each month.  The weighting of the bonds in the Index is reset during the rebalance to represent each issue's market value which is based on the issue's float-adjusted amount outstanding.
