The T. Rowe Price Ultra Short-Term Bond ETF is strategically designed to offer investors exposure to a diversified portfolio of short-term fixed-income securities.

In addition to domestic securities, the fund may allocate up to 10% of its net assets to non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities issued by foreign entities. This international exposure helps diversify the portfolio and potentially increase returns by capturing opportunities in global markets.
