Amundi Euro Government Bond 3-5y vs Amundi US Treasury Bond 7-10Y
Amundi Euro Government Bond 3-5y tracks Euro MTS Government Bond 3-5Y 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.

Which one is cheaper?+
Amundi US Treasury Bond 7-10Y has the lower annual fee. Applying the same 7% gross return to both with €300/month, that fee gap alone is worth about €1,515 after 20 years — that part is arithmetic, not a forecast.
Accumulating or distributing?+
Both are accumulating, so on this point there is no difference between them.
Can I hold both?+
Yes. Unlike two funds tracking the identical index, these give you genuinely different exposure, so holding both is not automatically redundant — just be aware you may end up overlapping on the largest companies and doubling your rebalancing work.
