Treasury Bills and Fixed Rate Treasury Notes (FXTNs) are the safest investment instruments available in the market, being direct and unconditional obligations of the Republic of the Philippines. These instruments are negotiable. They can be traded in the market anytime before their maturity.

These carry maturities of less than one year and are sold at a discount from face value.
Fixed Rate Treasury Notes
These have maturities of more than one year and fixed coupons that pay interest on a semi-annual basis.
These are debt securities issued by the Republic and mostly denominated in US dollars. As with peso-denominated government securities, you may buy or sell eurobonds through us at prevailing market rates.

Tier 2 Notes and LTNCDs |
|
Unsecured Subordinated (Tier 2) Notes
Unsecured subordinated notes issued by banks qualify for Tier 2 capital under the regulations of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP). While Tier 2 Notes are subordinated to claims of depositors and creditors of the Bank, Tier 2 Notes are higher yielding bank debt with a substantial yield pick-up over bank deposits and most alternative fixed income securities.
Long-Term Negotiable Certificates of Deposit (LTNCD)
LTNCDs are negotiable certificates of deposit indicating an amount of indebtedness of a bank with a designated maturity. The LTNCDs form part of a bank’s deposits and rank senior to all unsecured and subordinated debts, and all classes of equity securities.
For individual investors, interest income from Tier 2 Notes and LTNCDs is exempt from the 20% final withholding tax if held for at least five years.
