MAS to issue $4b in savings bonds next year

$300m will be available by January.

More elbow room will be provided for Singapore’s investors, as the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) announced that it will be offering up to $4b savings bonds next year.

According to a statement by MAS, a new savings bond will continue to be issued every month, while the issuance calendar can be found on the savings bond website.

“Interested investors are reminded that they must have an Individual Central Depository (CDP) Securities account with Direct Crediting Service (DCS) activated. CDP helps investors keep track of their Savings Bond holdings and facilitates the crediting of Savings Bond interest payments into investors’ bank accounts,” the statement said.

“Investors who already have Individual CDP Securities accounts should check2 that DCS has been activated before applying for Savings Bonds,” it added.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
