Applying for Singapore Savings Bonds

Singapore, 11 May 2015

The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) released more information on how investors can buy and redeem Singapore Savings Bonds. MAS expects the first Savings Bond to be issued in the second half of 2015. MAS will announce the programme launch date at least one month before applications for the first issuance open.

2 Savings Bonds are a new type of Singapore Government Securities (SGS) designed to offer individuals a long-term, flexible savings option with safe returns. They will provide individuals with more options to save and invest to meet their long-term financial needs.

Getting started

3 To apply for Savings Bonds, individuals will need:

a. A bank account with one of the participating banks (currently DBS/POSB, OCBC or UOB1); and

b. An individual Central Depository (CDP) Securities account with direct crediting service (DCS). DCS allows Savings Bond payments to be made directly to the individual’s DCS-linked bank account. Individuals need to be at least 18 years old to open an individual CDP Securities account. To find out how to open a CDP Securities account or activate DCS for an existing CDP Securities account, please refer to www.sgx.com/cdp/faq.

4 Individuals who wish to invest in Savings Bonds should ensure that they have the necessary bank and CDP accounts over the next few months before the Savings Bonds are launched.

Application and redemption periods

5 A new Savings Bond will be issued monthly. Applications for each Savings Bond issue will open on the first business day of each month and close four business days before the end of the month. Requests to redeem existing bonds can be made during the same period.

6 All application and redemption requests will be processed three business days before month’s end. Savings Bonds will be issued on the first business day of the next month and redemption proceeds will be processed by the second business day.

Applying for and redeeming Savings Bonds

7 Individuals will be able to apply for and redeem Savings Bonds through DBS/POSB, OCBC or UOB ATMs; or via DBS/POSB internet banking channels. Bank charges may apply. Applications and redemption requests must be made in multiples of $500, and Savings Bonds will only be available for purchase using cash.

8 Individuals will be able to apply for each Savings Bond issue with as little as $500, and up to $50,000. In addition, individuals will be able to hold up to $100,000 of Savings Bonds at any point in time. This will meet the needs of the vast majority as more than 90% of individual bank deposit accounts have balances of $100,000 or lower.

Allocation of Savings Bond

9 MAS will announce the issuance size for each Savings Bond issue before application opens. Should the total demand for Savings Bonds exceed the amount on offer in a particular month, MAS will allocate the bonds so as to maximise the number of successful applicants. (Please refer to this Application Factsheet for more information on the allotment process.) Individuals who do not receive their full allotment may wish to apply for the next issue.

Learning more about Savings Bonds

10 Investors should consider all the features of Savings Bonds before making their applications. To help investors understand the features of the Savings Bonds, MAS will set up a dedicated Savings Bonds website and a public hotline for enquiries ahead of the launch of the programme. In the meantime, individuals may refer to frequently asked questions (FAQs) on Savings Bonds at the Monetary Authority of Singapore website.

1 More banks may participate in the Savings Bond programme later.

Singapore Savings Bond Rates

Welcome to Singapore Savings Account Rates blogspot dot com where our team will share the best, the latest and the most up-to-date 2015 Singapore Savings Bond Rates in today's post.

Our team at Singapore Savings Account Rates works hard to raise your earned interest income from investing in Singapore Savings Bond Rates in 2015.

Here is some preliminary information on Singapore Savings Bond Rates according to Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS).

Singapore Savings Bond Rates:

Singapore Savings Bond rates interest is paid every 6 months.

At issuance, Singapore savings bond rates are fixed based on the prevailing SGS yields and locked in for each issue.

If you hold your Singapore Savings Bond for the full 10-year term, the average Singapore savings bond rates interest per year on your investment will match the return if you had invested in a 10-year SGS at the point of your investment.

In the last 10 years, the 10-year SGS yield has been between 2% to 3% most of the time.

If you decide to redeem your Singapore Savings Bond early, the average Singapore savings bond rates interest per year will be lower than the 10-year SGS yield.

For example, if you redeem Singapore Savings Bond after 2 years, the average Singapore savings bond rates interest per year on your investment will match the return if you had invested in a 2-year SGS.

The Singapore savings bond rates schedule for each Savings Bond issue will be announced before applications open.

Illustration Of Singapore Savings Bond Rates Calculation:

In the first year, you will earn interest based on the 1-year SGS yield at the point you bought the bond (for example = 0.9% p.a.).

In the second year, you will earn an interest (1.5% p.a.) higher than the 2-year SGS yield (1.2% p.a.), so that on average over the two years you would have received the 2-year SGS yield.

In the tenth year, the Savings Bond will pay an interest of 3.3% p.a..

The total return or average interest on your investment (2.4% p.a.) will match what you would have received had you bought a 10-year SGS at the time of your investment.

At any time during this 10-year period, you can choose to redeem the bond with no penalty and receive your principal ($1,000) with accrued interest.

If you hold the bond for the full 10 years, you will get your principal back together with the final 6-monthly interest payment.

Singapore Savings Bond rates quoted on Singapore savings accounts for 2015 are shared with you for personal use only. Always double confirm savings account interest rates with the respective banks before you invest your money.

Singapore Savings Bond rates are subject to change without prior notice at discretion of the bank or finance company in 2015. You need to assess the suitability of these financial products for your personal financial portfolio.
