Government Securities
Government securities are issued by the government to raise funds from public and institutional investors with promise to pay back the principal amount borrowed plus interest. There are mainly two types: Treasury bills (Short term between 91 days to 1 year) and Treasury bonds (Long term between 2 years to 30 years). They’re considered safe because they’re backed by the government. The government uses the proceeds from the sale of these securities to finance its budgetary needs, fund infrastructure projects, and manage its debt obligations.
The Board of Trustees reassures you the financial market’s volatility are cyclical and that both Scheme’s strategies have modelled a long-term investment approach that accounts for short-term effects on the investment fund. We hold the belief to ensure a sustainable kitty to all Scheme Members.
