Bonds are evidence of indebtedness issued by a corporation or government to an investor or purchaser. There are several types of bonds, one of which is a treasury bond. A treasury bond in the Philippines is issued by the Bureau of Treasury at a discount basis, at a premium, or at par payable on maturity or at coupon dates.

Real-world assets are being turned into digital tokens for better security and ease of use. In the case of securities like treasury bonds, users can use the PDAX app to buy and keep track of their investments, but this is only possible if the securities are tokenized.

Treasury bills (T-bills) are short-term (one year or less) debt securities issued by a government. The duration of a T-bill could either be 91, 182, or 364 days. T-bills are sold at a discount with the same face value. When the T-bill matures, the government pays you the full face value. Your profit will come from the difference between what you paid for the T-bill and the amount you receive upon maturity.

A Retail Treasury Bond (RTB) is a debt instrument issued by a government to raise funds from the public to finance its expenditure needs. RTBs are designed to be accessible to individual investors, including small savers, making them an attractive option for personal investment portfolios. They offer a fixed interest rate, and because they are backed by the government, they are considered to be low-risk investments.

RTBs have specific maturity periods, and the interest is typically paid semi-annually or quarterly until the bond matures, at which point the principal amount is returned to the investor.

This type of bond is part of the government’s program to promote saving and investing among its citizens while providing them with a safe investment option.
