Question: I should like to invest in Index Linked Bonds (ILB) and Indexed Annuity Bonds (IAB) but cannot find brokers who offer these instruments.
Can you please advise where to purchase?
Answer: Thanks for the question.
You will be able to purchase Australian Government Treasury Indexed Bonds on the ASX from 21 May. All brokers will be able to offer this service – it will just be like buying a share and entering an ASX stock code. The website www.australiangovernmentbonds.com [1] provides more details.
You can purchase Waratah Indexed Annuity Bonds (issued by the NSW Government) directly here [2].
I hope this helps.
