TREASURY BILLS
Treasury bills, or T-bills, are short-term debt obligations backed by the U.S. government with a maturity of less than one year. T-bills are considered the least risky investment available in the U.S. Treasury bills are sold in denominations of $1,000 up to a maximum purchase of $5 million and commonly have maturities of 28 days (four weeks), 91 days (13 weeks), 182 days (26 weeks), or 364 days (52 weeks).
