Invest in RTBs for as low as ₱5k

Filipinos can invest in Retail Treasury Bonds (RTBs) for as little as ₱5,000 and earn fixed interest while helping fund government programs and development projects.

Presidential Communications Office Undersecretary and Palace Press Officer Claire Castro said RTBs give ordinary Filipinos an opportunity to grow their savings while contributing to projects in education, healthcare, business support, job generation and other areas of the economy.

“Ginawa po ito ng gobyerno para sa ordinaryong Pilipino, sa empleyado, sa maliliit na negosyante at sa pamilyang gustong palaguin ang kanilang pinaghirapang ipon,” Castro said.

For RTB 32, investors can earn a fixed annual interest rate of 6.875 percent over a 2.5-year term, which Castro said could provide higher returns than traditional time deposits.

The bonds can be purchased through participating selling agents nationwide, with enrollment also available through mobile banking applications and e-wallets.

“Madali lang po ang pag-enroll dito, pwede na po itong gawin sa ating mga mobile banking apps at e-wallets,” Castro added.

The subscription period for RTB 32 runs from Sept. 29 to Oct. 7, 2026, with settlement scheduled for Oct. 12.

The Bureau of the Treasury said the public may check its website for more information, including the complete list of participating selling agents.
