Singapore's sovereign bonds are drawing in buyers after last month’s selloff as the nation’s tight monetary policy tames inflation.

The yield on the island nation’s 10-year note has fallen to around 3.28% from a six-month high of 3.47% touched late last month. Despite the drop, it remains at a level that was hit only about 10% of the time in the past three years, suggesting room for further declines.

Buyers are also encouraged by a less hawkish sounding Federal Reserve and a near two-year low local core inflation as a result of the Monetary Authority of Singapore’s tight policy.
