The formula is: [(Nominal Value * Indicative Price) / 100] + Processing Fee (based on nominal value) + Indicative Accrued Interest

Example:

Bond name: AAREIT 4.350% 05Dec2019 Corp (SGD)
Nominal Value/Investment amount: SGD 250,000
Indicative price: SGD105.69
Indicative Accrued Interest: SGD 4,772.92
Date to place the order: 5th May 2015 
Processing Fee (based on nominal): 0.35% (subject to min SGD 10) and 0.1% for bonds and SGS order respectively

[(SGD 250,000 * 105.69)/100] + (250,000 * 0.35%) + SGD 4,772.92
= 264,225 + 875 + 4,772.92
= SGD 269,872.92 (estimated amount payable)

Important Note:
To enable the processing of the Bond Purchase order, we will include a 3% buffer for Range Order and 5% buffer for Market Order (excluding Limit Order) into the final estimated payment amount when you place the buy order online. This buffer is to cater for changes of market prices, accrued interest and/ or currency conversion.

Accrued interest is paid to the seller of the bond to compensate for the loss of the expected coupon to be received.

You can choose to pay with any currency during the online purchase. Conversion rate will be based on T (Transaction date) + 1 business day's rate of the order.

The exchange rate will be based on the T (Transaction date) + 1 business day of your order.

Bond order received before the transaction cut off time will be processed on the same day. The cut off time for bond is at 5pm on any business day. Order(s) placed on/after 5pm on a business day or on a non-business day will be processed on the next business day.

Once the bond order is matched successfully with our counterparty, the order will be transacted.

Bond purchase transactions placed via Cash Account or Auto-Sweep payment mode will be reflected in your holdings on T (Transaction Date) upon successful execution.

Bond purchase transactions placed via Post-Trade-Payment mode will only be reflected in holdings after the full payment has been received.
