- Yield change: The 1.45% cutoff is 24 bp higher than the previous 2-year SGS auction (N513100T, 1.21% on 28 Apr 2015).
- Price vs par: The bond cleared at S$99.85 per S$100 face value — a discount, because the 1.38% fixed coupon is below the 1.45% market yield. The lower price compensates for the smaller coupon.

About SGS Bonds
SGS Bonds pay the fixed coupon (1.38% in this issue's case) semi-annually on face value until maturity. The cutoff yield is what the auction priced at — it reflects the market's required return and changes at each reopening. Holding to maturity returns face value; selling earlier in the secondary market exposes you to price fluctuation as rates move.
