Inflation-Protected Bond ETFs

Most of these ETFS will offer investors exposure to both U.S. and international inflation-protected debt. The majority of these funds invest in Treasury inflation-protected securities, which are U.S. treasury securities that are indexed to the Consumer Price Index. TIPs pay interest twice a year at a fixed rate. TIPS are an asset class suitable for conservative investors who do not want to participate in the volatility associated with the stock market or higher yield bonds.
