It depends on the individual's objective.
If you compare Temasek's 5-year bond to SSB, the former does give higher returns. However, if you were to compare it with equities/funds, then the same cannot be said.
If the person is looking for a low-risk investment then certainly, equities and funds cannot be used as a fair comparison. If the person is looking to invest SRS funds, then the same can be said about comparing SSB and the Temasek bonds.
Whether or not to buy Temasek bonds depends on your objective.
