Investment Options in Singapore
A Singapore Government Agency Website introduces the types of investments. The options are plentiful: shares, bonds, unit trusts, ETFs, and REITs. Before committing a cent, get a clear-eyed overview of every major investment product available in Singapore.
How These Investments Are Offered
Different asset classes are listed on the exchange, including shares, Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), and Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs). Examples of specific instruments include Initial Public Offers (IPOs) for ordinary shares and tenders for government bonds. Singapore Savings Bonds (SSBs) are also part of the landscape, and the Government of Singapore is involved.
