2% only... It's indeed priced correctly between the current 1-year and 3-years MGS yield. https://www.investing.com/markets/malaysia

Anyway, is there a secondary market?

Assuming the bonds are issued at par, then the yield is actually not bad and is even slightly better then existing sukuk of the same tenure too

These bonds are non-trad-able, so no secondary markets unfortunately

I see. Thanks. Checked out the FAQ sheet as well.

The non-tradable provision is very disturbing. What happens if interest rate rises above 2% 1-2 years later? If bonds can be traded, market can price in accordingly (by selling the bond in secondary market until yield goes up to market-clearing level), but with non-tradable provision, you are stuck with low rate. Can't even sell back to government before maturity. A 2% return for such an illiquid asset is not really enticing to me.
