Why get invested
The BDO Peso Bond Fund focuses on generating income by investing primarily in government and corporate bonds. You get access to these bonds that have passed a stringent review of creditworthiness. If you have medium term goals, like saving for a trip abroad, this is the investment product for you. Make the most out of the Peso Bond Fund with BDO's Easy Investment Plan.
While it’s a moderate risk product, attendant risks come with changes in interest rates. For minimized risks and maximized earning potential, we recommend to stay invested for at least three (3) years.
