The weekly sales were over the HUF 81 bln average in the previous 20 weeks.

The Plusz bond, which pays an annualized yield of 4.95% if held for the full five-year maturity, has attracted record demand among retail investors in Hungary.

Speaking at a press conference on Monday, Finance Minister Mihály Varga stressed that there are no plans to change the conditions for the Plusz bonds.

He said just HUF 1 bln of the Plusz bonds had been redeemed early, responding to a question.
