About PRULX

T. Rowe Price U.S. Treasury Long-Term Index Fund is an open-ended mutual fund specializing in U.S. government bonds. Its primary function is to provide high income while maximizing credit protection by investing at least 80% of its assets in long-term U.S. Treasury securities—debt instruments backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. The fund tracks the Bloomberg U.S. Long Treasury Bond Index, focusing on securities with maturities of 10 years or more, resulting in a portfolio with a weighted average maturity typically between 15 and 20 years. This long duration exposes the fund to heightened interest rate sensitivity, but ensures a high credit quality due to exclusive exposure to Treasuries. With total assets of over $5 billion and a history dating back to 1989, it offers investors a transparent, rules-based approach to accessing the long end of the U.S. Treasury market. The fund plays a key role in the broader financial market by serving as a benchmark and income-generating vehicle for investors seeking government-backed fixed income exposure and interest rate risk management.
