Today Goldman Sachs has added an ultra-short-term bond fund to its ETF lineup. The [Goldman Sachs Access Ultra Short Bond ETF (GSST)](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1479026/000119312519106226/d643480d497.htm) aims to offer investors current income and preservation of capital, according to its prospectus.

The fund comes with an expense ratio of 0.16% and lists on Cboe Global Markets, the parent company of ETF.com.

**Methodology**

GSST’s portfolio mainly includes a wide variety of mostly investment-grade U.S. dollar-denominated debt in its portfolio. The portfolio targets an effective duration of one year or less. It is also expected to have significant concentrations of more than 25% in debt issued by financial services companies, the prospectus says.

The fund is very similar to the [JPMorgan Ultra-Short Income ETF (JPST)](https://www.etf.com/jpst), which is also actively managed and takes a broad focus. JPST launched in May 2017 and currently has $6.6 billion in assets under management (AUM).

Goldman already has an ultra-short-term bond ETF in its lineup, but the [Goldman Sachs Access Treasury 0-1 Year ETF (GBIL)](https://www.etf.com/GBIL) tracks an index and focuses on Treasury debt. It currently has $3.1 billion in AUM after launching in September 2016.

GSST is [Goldman Sachs](https://www.etf.com/topics/goldman-sachs-etfs)’ 20th ETF. Goldman also has three ETNs. The firm currently has roughly $12 billion in AUM in its ETF and ETN lineup.
