ÁKK cuts offer for twelve-month bills, raises for floaters

The Government Debt Management Centre cut its offer of discount twelve-month T-bills but sold more than planned floating-rate bonds at auctions on Thursday.
ÁKK sold HUF 33 bln of the twelve-month bills, cutting its original offer by HUF 7 bln after primary dealers bid for just HUF 35.6 bln of the papers. Average yield was 1.63%, 5bp over the secondary market benchmark but level with the yield at the previous auction of the bills two weeks earlier. Yields ranged between 1.59% and 1.67%.
ÁKK sold HUF 30 bln of the floating-rate bonds, raising its original offer by HUF 10 bln after dealers bid for HUF 85.2 bln.
ÁKK sold a further HUF 8.5 bln of the floaters at a non-competitive tender following the auction.
