Didn't know that SGX has some bonds that can be traded like shares. Market is very small and illiquid though. Bid spreads so high.

QL3 is a bond fund with dual-currency trading on SGX. It gives its dividends in USD. It was my first time investing in such a fund. I was expecting to receive it in my SGD trading account with some FX charge applied (from what I'd heard), but I received a cashier's order in USD though.

That, is going to be damn troublesome since QL3 makes quarterly payments.
