Amundi Euro Corporate Bond vs Amundi US Treasury Bond 7-10Y

Amundi Euro Corporate Bond tracks Markit iBoxx Euro Corporate and Amundi US Treasury Bond 7-10Y tracks Bloomberg US Treasury 7-10 Year. They are realistic alternatives for the same slot in a portfolio, but because the indices are different nobody can tell you in advance which will return more. What can be compared objectively is the cost, the replication method, the domicile and how each one is structured — and that is what this page does.

What each one tracks

This is the underlying difference: they do not follow the same index, so their returns will diverge.

What the fee gap actually costs

Applying the SAME 7% gross return to both and contributing €300/month, the only thing moving the result is the TER. This is not a return forecast: it is how much the fee weighs.
