PETALING JAYA: With the strong prospect of an overnight policy (OPR) rate cut this year, coupled with the UK leaving the European Union (Brexit), the outlook of the Malaysian bond market looks bright with yields expected to slide further.

Market analysts are expecting at least a 25-basis point (bps) cut for the OPR this year, which currently is at 3.25%.
