Sorry, such a fund cannot exist, because if you could borrow or lend at
U.S. interest rates without exposure to the U.S. dollar, there would be
an arbitrage. For example, with Fed Funds currently at 3.25% and the
ECB rate at 2%, a bank would borrow in Euros at 2%, invest in your
hypothetical fund at a 3.25% rate, and make a riskless profit.

I would like to know if there is any fund with a rate close to the FED
rate.
So it must be a zero risk fund indexed to the FED bonds rate. But
instead of being in US dolars it should be in euros.
Anyone knows of such financial tool ???


Regards,
Pedro
