SGS Issue Codes and ISIN Mapping
How to identify the exact Singapore Government Security behind a quoted yield.
MECHANISM
SGS datasets use issue codes and ISINs to distinguish securities. Keeping these identifiers attached to observations prevents benchmark rolls or similarly dated bonds from being mistaken for the same instrument.
WHAT TO MONITOR
Store issue code, ISIN, coupon and maturity together when building historical datasets.
Primary-source starting points: Monetary Authority of Singapore — Bonds and Bills and Singapore Ministry of Finance — Assets and Liabilities. Source availability varies by mechanism.
