Finance Secretary Ralph G. Recto has urged Filipinos to invest in the Bureau of the Treasury (BTr)’s 30th tranche of Retail Treasury Bonds (RTB 30), which promotes cheap investment opportunities for small savers to secure their future.

“The RTB 30 is more than just a financial contract but a commitment to shared prosperity.
