Treasury Inflation-Indexed Securities Provide Protection Against Inflation
Author: Walter J. ReinhartPublisher:

Book Description
A challenge faced by investors as interest rates eventually rise in response to inflationary pressure is how they maintain value and purchasing power. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS) are a debt instrument offered to protect against inflation. This article describes TIPS, reviews their risk return profile, explains tax considerations, provides several numerical examples, and briefly discusses investment/portfolio factors. The tax treatment of TIPS consists of two components: (1) the taxation of semiannual interest payments, and (2) the taxation of inflation/deflation adjustments to principal. Because TIPS are issued at par and interest is unconditionally payable in cash at least annually at a single fixed rate (called qualified stated interest), they meet the criteria for the more simplified coupon bond method specified by the Treasury regulations. The tax implications negate some of the certainty of inflation protection if they are held in taxable accounts.

Your budget submission to OMB should build on the President's commitment to advance the vision of a Federal Government that spends taxpayer dollars more efficiently and effectively and to provide necessary services in support of key National priorities while reducing deficits. OMB looks forward to working closely with you in the coming months to develop a budget request that supports the President's vision.

Treasury Inflation-Indexed Debt
Author: Brian P. SackPublisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 40
Book Description
This paper reviews the U.S. experience with inflation-indexed debt. To date, Treasury inflation-indexed securities have not been highly valued by investors, with the spread between the yields on nominal and inflation-indexed securities falling consistently below most measures of long-run inflation expectations. A number of factors might have contributed to the low relative valuation of TIIS, including the difficulty for investors of adjusting to a new asset class, the concentration of participation in the market, the lower liquidity of TIIS relative to nominal Treasury securities, and the divergent trends in the supply of nominal and inflation-indexed Treasury debt. As a result, inflation-indexed debt has not yet lived up to one of its main purposes--to reduce financing costs to the Treasury. However, there are signs that the TIIS market is still evolving, which could affect the valuation of TIIS going forward.

Are Tips Really Tax Disadvantaged? Rethinking the Tax Treatment of U.S. Treasury Inflation Indexed Securities
Author: Scott E. HeinPublisher:
ISBN:

Languages : en
Pages : 23
Book Description
In 1997 the U.S. Treasury introduced Inflation Indexed (or Protected) Securities with substantial promotional fanfare. Yet, due in part to what some in the finance profession have described as a quot;tax disadvantagequot; placed upon TIPS, many are questioning whether they should appeal to a wide audience. Some, in fact, advise holding TIPS only in tax-deferred accounts. In this paper, the authors develop a framework that allows us to demonstrate that the tax treatment of TIPS is trivially different from that of conventional Treasury securities. Utilizing an after-tax valuation approach, they further show that under relatively conservative projections for inflation, TIPS generally have after-tax yields comparable to, if not exceeding, conventional fixed-rate Treasury securities.
