Fund profile
As filed in the prospectus · 2026 Q1
The investment objective of the DFA Intermediate Government Fixed Income Portfolio (the Intermediate Government Portfolio or the Portfolio) is to earn current income consistent with preservation of capital.
The fund invests primarily in U.S. Treasury and government agency obligations with maturities between five and fifteen years, targeting a weighted average effective maturity between three and ten years and a duration similar to the Bloomberg U.S. Government Bond Index. It may also hold AAA-rated foreign government debt, supranational obligations, and money market funds, and may use Treasury futures to adjust exposure around cash flows. The fund maintains at least 80% of assets in fixed income government securities.

Share of the fund's debt by how its coupon behaves — the fact that decides whether a rate move reaches this portfolio at all.

| 10y+ | 38.9% |
Based on what filers reported; a filer that never reported a flag also reads as none.
Risk profile
Interest-rate and credit-spread sensitivity, both in years · as of 2026Q2
Most of this fund’s sensitivity is to interest rates, with credit spreads carrying a small fraction as much.
Where the loss would come from. The two shocks are the same size, so this is the balance of the fund's two sensitivities rather than a bet on one moving more.
| Interest rates | 80% |
| Credit spreads | 20% |
Filers report the impact of a 0.01% move only, so the total is our own scaling of that one number and overstates the loss on most bonds — read it as approximate, never as precise. The two sensitivities overlap rather than add up: they measure the same positions against different shocks, which is why the durations above are shown side by side and never summed.
Share of the fund's spread duration carried by each credit tier.
| Investment grade | +1.48 yr |
| High yield | +0.00 yr |
Share of duration at each point, shortest first. A positive figure loses value when spreads widen; a negative one offsets — a credit hedge.
| 3 mo | 0.03 yr | 1% |
| 1 yr | 0.58 yr | 10% |
| 5 yr | 1.34 yr | 23% |
| 10 yr | 3.48 yr | 60% |
| 30 yr | 0.35 yr | 6% |
| 3 mo | 0.01 yr | 1% |
| 1 yr | 0.24 yr | 16% |
| 5 yr | 0.43 yr | 29% |
| 10 yr | 0.77 yr | 52% |
| 30 yr | 0.03 yr | 2% |
The two bands measure the same positions against different shocks and do not add — a Treasury carries rate duration and no spread duration, a floating-rate credit the reverse. Rate tenors are also summed across every currency the fund discloses.
