7-year SGS cutoff yield history
Latest auction in context
- Yield change: The 4.57% cutoff is 33 bp lower than the previous 7-year SGS auction (N792100T, 4.90% on 25 Aug 1992).
- Price vs par: The bond cleared at S$99.58 per S$100 face value — a discount, because the 4.50% fixed coupon is below the 4.57% market yield. The lower price compensates for the smaller coupon.

About SGS Bonds
SGS Bonds pay the fixed coupon (4.50% 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.
