CEBU CITY, Cebu, October 3 (PIA) -- The Bureau of Treasury (BTr) has officially launched its second Retail Offshore Dolar Bonds 2 (RDB2), which are available to retail investors, individuals, and institutions who are looking for a higher-yielding investment and who want to diversify their investment portfolio. The RDBs are US dollar-denominated medium- to long-term debt securities issued by the Philippine government through the BTr. These are fixed-income securities that are part of the government's savings mobilization program. To source additional funding to finance the priority projects and key various expenditures of the national government, the BTr issues government securities such as bonds where the public can safely invest their money by buying shares of these bonds. The Retail Offshore Dollar Bond is one of the government securities or debt instruments that serve as another funding source for the national government.
