MANILA, Philippines -The national government is finalizing plans to offer $2 billion to $3 billion worth of retail Treasury bonds (RTBs) denominated in American dollars, which might be announced in Washington DC next month in April, according to Finance Secretary Benjamin Diokno. Diokno told reporters the possible issuance was aimed at Filipinos who are based overseas as well as those who are here in the country, since the debt paper could be made available in Philippine pesos. 'It would be a good investment option, for as little as $200,' the finance chief said.
