The Bureau of the Treasury plans to offer at least P30 billion worth of retail treasury bonds (RTBs) to small investors starting next week. The offering is the government’s 32nd RTB issuance and is scheduled to run from September 29 to October 7, with an issue date set for October 12. The bonds are peso-denominated and have a 2.5-year tenor.
The notices cited by outlets specify the RTBs will mature in 2029, with one report describing a maturity date of April 12, 2029. Coverage also frames the sale as marking the government’s 25th year of tapping retail investors through RTBs this year. While both accounts focus on the same timetable, bond maturity, and target amount, they differ mainly in how they describe the milestone and the exact maturity date. Other reporting also references an earlier decision to adjust the scope of a forthcoming retail T-bond sale, though details of that adjustment are not fully reiterated in the provided excerpts.
