2-year SGS cutoff yield history
Latest auction in context
- Yield change: The 2.04% cutoff is 103 bp lower than the previous 2-year SGS auction (N292100V, 3.07% on 10 Feb 1992).
- Price vs par: The bond cleared at S$99.68 per S$100 face value — a discount, because the 1.88% fixed coupon is below the 2.04% market yield. The lower price compensates for the smaller coupon.

About SGS Bonds
SGS Bonds pay the fixed coupon (1.88% in this issue's case) semi-annually on face value until maturity. The cutoff yield is what the auction priced at — it reflects the market's required return and changes at each reopening. Holding to maturity returns face value; selling earlier in the secondary market exposes you to price fluctuation as rates move.
