Overview of Investment Options
Before committing a cent, it is useful to get a clear-eyed overview of every major investment product available in Singapore. The options are plentiful: shares, bonds, unit trusts, ETFs, and REITs.
Examples and Asset Classes
Examples of these products include initial public offers (IPOs) for ordinary shares and tenders for government bonds. Different asset classes such as shares, exchange traded funds (ETFs), and real estate investment trusts (REITs) are listed on the exchange. Singapore Savings Bonds (SSBs) are one such bond option. You can also understand how ETFs track indices, their liquidity advantages, and how they compare to unit trusts in Singapore.
