TreasuryDirect

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Treasury Direct is a website run by the United States Treasury, allowing individual investors to purchase T-Bills and other Treasury securities directly from the U.S. government. Its website allows money to be deposited from and withdrawn to personal bank accounts, and allows rolling repurchase of securities as the currently held items mature.

TreasuryDirect is the first and only financial services website that lets you buy and redeem securities directly from the U.S. Department of the Treasury in paperless electronic form. The public can enjoy the flexibility of managing a savings portfolio online as needs and financial circumstances change - all the time knowing that the money is backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government.

Treasury offers product information and research across the entire line of Treasury Securities, from Series EE Savings Bonds to Treasury Notes. New TreasuryDirect accounts offer Treasury Bills, Notes, Bonds, Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS), and Series I and EE Savings Bonds in electronic form in one convenient account.

The public can also purchase Treasury Bills, Notes, Bonds and Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) in Legacy Treasury Direct. For a discussion of the differences between TreasuryDirect and Legacy TreasuryDirect, see My Accounts.
