What is a 5-year TIPS bond?

Does this mean I need to withdraw the bond after 5 years, or can I keep it in longer & just not get it before 5 years.

TIPS stands for treasury inflation protected security. As in the yield the bond pays will adjust with inflation. A 5-yr bond will mature in five years. Or you could buy a TIPS fund, which would not mature.

It will explain everything via that website.

Best of luck
