    Solution

    On-the-run government securities are  the most recently issued securities. These are mostly used in reference to U.S. Treasury bonds or notes of a particular maturity. On-the-run Treasuries are the opposite of "off-the-run" Treasuries, which refer to Treasury securities that have been issued before the most recent issue and are still outstanding.
