THE Bureau of Treasury said that they launched their latest retail treasury bond (RTB) offer that gives a 6.25 percent annual gross interest over a five-year tenor.

According to the BTr, the interest on the RTBs is payable for each quarter until its maturity in 2029.

It will have a minimum investment of P5,000. 

“The public offering will begin on February 13, 2024 until February 23, 2024, and will be settled on February 28, 2024,” the Department of Finance said. 

According to Finance Secretary Ralph Recto, the public should take advantage of the latest RTB offer, which is a convenient and virtually risk-free investment.

“RTBs are just a few swipes away, making investing as easy as ordering our favorite food delivery,” Recto said.

He also said that the DOF uses over-the-counter transactions, RTBs can be purchased via the BTr’s Online Ordering Facility for investors who are clients of the China Banking Corporation, the Development Bank of the Philippines (DBP), the Land Bank of the Philippines, and First Metro Securities. 

The RTBs are likewise accessible via mobile banking through LANDBANK, OFBank, and Bonds.PH applications.
