Investor Profile

Its niche focus differentiates it from competitors focusing on Treasury bonds. However, lower trading volume and a narrower market segment might pose challenges. It is best suited for sophisticated investors with a clear understanding of Eurodollar futures and hedging strategies. Its performance is closely tied to interest rate movements and the Eurodollar futures market.
