The statement is False.

Explanation:

Treasury Bonds are the bonds that are given to the people in exchange of their money for a fixed period of time of a minimum of 5 years and a normal of 10 years. For putting their money fixed, people are paid an interest amount monthly or on annual basis.

Financial institutions are not the only ones who can purchase the Treasury Bills. Individuals or companies can also purchase these bonds. Individuals, companies and Financial institutions, all can enjoy the interest amount paid to them on their money which they put them with the bank or the issuer of the Treasury Bond.
