About 1 Year Treasury Rate

What it measures

The 1-year Treasury rate (FRED series WGS1YR) is the weekly average of the 1-year constant maturity yield, interpolated by the Treasury from secondary market quotes on actively traded bills and notes. Published via the Federal Reserve H.15 release, it represents the annualized return on a riskless US government obligation maturing in one year.

Why it matters

The 1-year yield compresses the expected average of the policy rate over the coming year into a single number, making it a clean read on market conviction about the Fed cycle. It also serves as a reset index for some adjustable-rate loans and as a discount rate for short-dated liabilities, linking policy expectations directly to borrower costs.

How to read it

When the 1-year yield sits well above the current funds rate, markets are pricing hikes; well below, they are pricing cuts. It moves earlier and more smoothly than the overnight rate itself, since it aggregates the expected path. Compare it to the 3-month yield to gauge policy expectations concentrated in the nine months beyond the immediate quarter.
