Amundi US Treasury Bond 0-1Y UCITS ETF Acc

What this fund is

Amundi US Treasury Bond 0-1Y UCITS ETF Acc is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) from Amundi, traded under the ticker PR1T (ISIN LU2182388665). It lets you buy a basket of holdings in a single trade, spreading your money across them rather than one company. 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 Short Treasury Total Return Index Value Unhedged USD index (passive investing): it tracks the market rather than relying on a manager, keeping running costs down, and its largest holdings include THE UNITED ST TBIP % 06Aug26, THE UNITED ST TBIP % 03Sep26 and THE UNITED ST TBIP % 17Sep26. It holds around 90 positions (the ten largest ≈ 27.4%), spreading risk so no single holding decides your outcome.

Geographically it leans ~100% United States. By industry it concentrates most in ~100% 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 0.05% a year — about €5 a year on a €10,000 holding, taken automatically from the fund. Income such as dividends is automatically reinvested inside the fund (an accumulating share class), so returns compound without you doing anything.

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 USD. Its price has swung about 6.1% over the past year — a gauge of how much the value moves, not a judgement of quality. It launched in 2020. 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 Amundi.)
