Government Securities Now Available on GBonds

​Selected government securities, such as Treasury bills (T-bills), are now available on GBonds, a new investment platform made possible through the partnership of the Bureau of the Treasury (BTr), GCash, the Philippine Digital Asset Exchange (PDAX), Inc., and Bonds.PH Inc. This initiative supports the BTr’s commitment to financial inclusion by allowing Filipinos to conveniently invest in government securities through their mobile devices, even without a bank account. Retail Treasury Bonds (RTBs) will also be offered on the platform soon, in time for the next RTB issuance.

​GBonds is the latest feature from GCash that allows users to invest in government securities, which are considered one of the safest financial instruments. GBonds offers Treasury Bills for a minimum of P500 and Retail Treasury Bonds for a minimum of P5,000 during their primary offering.

“GBonds is about bridging the gap between the government securities market and the millions of Filipinos,” said National Treasurer Sharon P. Almanza. “By making these investment options available through mobile applications and electronic wallets, we are showing our commitment to empowering more Filipinos by providing easier access and more inclusive ways to invest.”

Finance Secretary Ralph G. Recto also highlighted the important role of GBonds in helping the country’s economic goals. “GBonds is a powerful instrument that gives Filipinos a safe way to grow their hard-earned money while also helping build the country’s future by supporting key government programs like infrastructure and education,” said Secretary Recto.

The availability of government securities on GBonds reflects the Bureau of the Treasury’s continued efforts to broaden retail investor participation, promote financial literacy and inclusion, and deepen the domestic debt market. This initiative represents a significant milestone in the BTr’s digitalization roadmap and supports the Republic’s push for a more inclusive and accessible financial system.
