There is no question that it has gained full acceptance among savers as an alternative - and possibly superior - form of savings compared to putting money in a bank.
This is underscored by rising demand from retail investors, particularly from the second quarter of 2018 when the monthly issuance of bonds consistently crossed the S$200 million mark.
