Treasury Note. Loading the player... What is a 'Treasury Note'. A treasury note is a marketable U.S. government debt security with a fixed interest rate and a maturity between one and 10 years. Treasury notes are available from the government with either a competitive or noncompetitive bid.
Treasury securities are considered risk-free since they are backed by the U.S. government. This figure, and an added margin based upon the risk involved, is used in pricing various debt securities. It is also used in establishing certificate of deposit (CD) yields. Back to treasury securities page.
