Well as announced yesterday, Temasek Holdings’ Azalea Asset Management is launching a new series of bonds called Astrea 7 backed by 38 private equity funds with an indicative total size of US$755 million.
There will be 3 classes of bonds, A-1,A-2 and B under Astrea 7:

I believe the upcoming Astrea 7 bonds is good news for retail investors and savers who will have even more choice when it comes to making their monies work even harder for them. However, my understanding is that interest rates of Astrea 7 Bonds are yet to be decided. So, for those investors considering whether to invest in the Jun 2022 Singapore Savings Bonds (with a 2.53% per annum interest rate over 10 years) or the Astrea 7 bonds, they may need to wait a little while more for details of the interest rates of Astrea 7 bonds to be announced.
