Anyone here invest in Malaysia Bond?

I saw FSM offer MGS 4.504% 30Apr2029 Govt (MYR), the interest rate is around 4.504% sound good to me.

but just not sure is it good to invest at this moment? since ringgit is depreciating asset.

and, is it better to invest in government bond rather than corporate bond?

Forget about MGS as you better off putting money in EPF instead 🤦‍♀️

Make sure the company solid and investment grade rates highly otherwise chances goes bust is high

Utilities companies are now sought after for corporate bonds as the yield high at 5% onwards and you must have the time to hold otherwise liquidity issue

Like many said currently FD 4+% which is way better yield for the risks you taking

Max out EPF 1st then only you should decide on bonds as many has been burnt even from bond funds

Big spread between “bid” and “ask” pricing.
