Hey, hey, listen up! So there’s this thing coming up, it’s like a government money thingy that’s gonna be auctioned off in Singapore, right? They call it Singapore Treasury Bill issue (sounds fancy, huh?)—BS25106X or something—you know numbers and letters, those official codes that mean something to money people. Anyway, this thing’s going down on Wednesday, March 26, 2025. Circle that date, maybe with a red pen, if you like colors.
Now, if you’re thinking, “Hey, I want a piece of that action,” well, you gotta get your stuff in gear by March 25. That’s the cut-off, don’t snooze on it. You can do it online through this magic thing called Internet banking (doesn’t matter if you got cash, SRS, CPF-OA, CPF-SA, or some other acronym). Or if you’re, like, into old-school vibes, there’s the in-person route for CPF—no holograms, just you and a human being.
And it’s open to everyone—Singaporeans, PR folks, and our non-Singaporean pals. It’s like a financial buffet where everyone gets a plate. The more the merrier, as they say!
Somewhere in the archives of my mind—and probably on paper or some digital page—I told you about these Treasury Bills. Like why they’re the bee’s knees for smart investing or whatever. I even gave you a playbook on how to snatch them up like you’re grabbing the last cookie. It’s called, in a really not-so-creative way: “How to Buy Singapore 6-Month Treasury Bills (T-Bills) or 1-Year SGS Bonds.” Yeah, not Shakespeare, but hey, it’s informative.
Look, last auction round cut-off yield was 2.56%. Is that good? You decide. If you’re throwin’ down a non-competitive bid, they might slice up your amount and you’ll make that 2.56% yield all nice and tidy. But, if you’re the YOLO type and wanna make sure you get every crumb you’re bidding on, go competitive.
Alright, no more yada yada. Just remember, if you want in, you gotta act fast. Get those bids in before they slam the door shut. Now go forth and bid like you mean it, buddy!
