This auction in context

Descriptive observations from MAS auction history — not forecasts or recommendations.

How this auction worked

MAS runs a uniform-price auction: every successful bidder — competitive or non-competitive — pays the cutoff yield. The cutoff is the highest yield accepted to fill the issue size; the median is the middle of all submitted bids, so the gap between them shows how far the last accepted bid sat above the middle of the pool. The bid-to-cover ratio is the total amount bid divided by the amount issued.

Allotment outcome

Non-competitive bids:
filled in full
Competitive bids at the cutoff:
44.0% of the amount applied
Total bids received:
S$18.0B

As published by MAS for this auction. Non-competitive bids are allotted first and pro-rated only if they exceed 40% of the issue size.
