State Street Investment Management today announced the State Street® SPDR® Portfolio S&P 500® ETF (Ticker: SPYM) has been selected by the U.S. Department of the Treasury as the exclusive default ETF for Trump Accounts to provide broad exposure to the U.S. stock market while maintaining low expenses. Trump Accounts are a new national initiative designed to help children begin investing early and participate in long‑term compound growth.
SPYM, the lowest-cost S&P 500 ETF in the market1, is designed to provide broad exposure to the largest publicly traded U.S. companies by tracking the S&P 500 index. It offers diversified access to established U.S. businesses across sectors through a single, ultra‑low‑cost investment intended to serve as a long-term core holding that delivers compounding from the outset.
The Treasury‑administered program, established under the Working Families Tax Cut Act, will launch on July 4, 2026, in conjunction with the 250th anniversary of the United States’ Declaration of Independence. Trump Accounts are designed to give children under 18 access to tax-advantaged investment accounts built around simple, low‑cost, index‑based exposure to the companies that power the U.S. economy.
“We are thrilled that SPYM has been selected as the default fund for this important savings and investing initiative,” said Yie-Hsin Hung, Chief Executive Officer at State Street Investment Management. “These accounts are designed to make investing simple, accessible and enduring, so families can start early and stay invested over time. Getting there starts here, by giving children a straightforward entry point into investing and helping families harness the power of long‑term, low‑cost exposure to the growth of the U.S. economy from the beginning.”
“For more than forty years, we’ve focused on expanding access to the markets in ways that are durable, scalable and designed for the long term,” said Anna Paglia, Chief Business Officer at State Street Investment Management. “By bringing that experience to the Trump Accounts, we’re helping support a program built to serve families consistently over time and to introduce investing at a national scale. We are excited to have investors begin their journey with SPYM as their first step into long-term investing.”
Under the program, children who are U.S. citizens and born between January 1, 2025 and December 31, 2028 will be eligible for a one-time $1,000 contribution from the U.S. Treasury, invested upon election by an authorized adult when filing federal taxes. In addition, for any U.S. child under 18, individuals may contribute up to $5,000 per year to a Trump Account. All eligible contributions are invested in SPYM by default.
State Street was also among the first U.S. employers proud to match the U.S. Treasury’s contribution for eligible children of active employees, further expanding on opportunities for long-term investment growth.

Important Risk Information
State Street Global Advisors (SSGA) is now State Street Investment Management. Please go to statestreet.com/investment-management for more information.
Investing involves risk including the risk of loss of principal.
ETFs trade like stocks, are subject to investment risk, fluctuate in market value and may trade at prices above or below the ETFs net asset value. Brokerage commissions and ETF expenses will reduce returns.
While the shares of ETFs are tradable on secondary markets, they may not readily trade in all market conditions and may trade at significant discounts in periods of market stress.
Returns on investments in stocks of large U.S. companies could trail the returns on investments in stocks of smaller and mid-sized companies.
The Fund is classified as “diversified” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”); however, the Fund may become “non-diversified,” as defined under the 1940 Act, solely as a result of tracking the Index (e.g., changes in weightings of one or more component securities). When the Fund is non-diversified, it may invest a relatively high percentage of its assets in a limited number of issuers.
Frequent trading of ETFs could significantly increase commissions and other costs such that they may offset any savings from low fees or costs.
