UBS Core BBG US Treasury 1-3 UCITS ETF hEUR dis

UBS Core BBG US Treasury 1-3 UCITS ETF hEUR dis is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) from UBS, traded under the ticker 0HEP (ISIN LU1324510525). In a single purchase you get a diversified basket of holdings rather than a stake in just one business. In plain terms it is about lending to governments and companies in return for regular interest, which tends to be steadier than shares but grows more slowly, spread across its target market. It follows the Bloomberg US Treasury 1-3 Year index (passive investing): it tracks the market rather than relying on a manager, keeping running costs down, and its largest holdings include T 3 1/2 01/31/28, T 4 5/8 04/30/29 and T 4 1/4 06/30/29. By geography it is weighted towards ~14.3% United States. By industry it concentrates most in ~14.3% Government. Funds like this are often used as the steadier, lower-swing part of a portfolio — the ballast that cushions the ups and downs of shares. Its ongoing charge (TER) is 0.07% a year — about €7 a year on a €10,000 holding, taken automatically from the fund. Income such as dividends is paid out to you as cash (a distributing share class), and over the last year it paid out roughly 4.14% (its trailing yield). It holds the underlying investments directly (physical replication); it is domiciled in Luxembourg and UCITS-regulated, a European standard built to protect everyday investors and trades in EUR. Its price has swung about 1.3% over the past year, which describes how much its price tends to move rather than whether it is good. It launched in 2016. Like any investment, it can lose value as well as gain, and what it did before does not predict what it will do next. (Fund data sourced from UBS.)
