The Government Debt Management Agency (ÁKK) exchanged HUF 34.5 bln of bonds maturing in 2024 and 2025 for ones that expire in 2017 and 2018 at a switch auction on Wednesday, under the HUF 40 bln plan.

ÁKK sold HUF 17.0 bln of 2024/B bonds, accepting 2017/A bonds as payment, and a further HUF 17.5 bln of 2025/B bonds for 2018/B bonds. 

Bids by primary dealers reached HUF 31.2 bln for the 2017/A exchange and HUF 23.5 bln for the 2018/B exchange. 

ÁKK had planned to exchange HUF 20 bln of each of the longer maturities. 

The average yield for both switch auctions was 2.89%. The ten-year benchmark yield – on a bond maturing in 2027 – was 3.29% on Wednesday.
