November 27 (SeeNews) - Bulgaria's central bank will auction on Monday 30 million levs ($22.8 million/15.3 million euro) in 10-year fixed-rate Treasury notes which are not expected to attract very big investor interest, dealers said on Tuesday.
The offer bears an annual interest rate of 4.25%, with coupon payments due semi-annually and the last payment due upon maturity, on January 10, 2017, the Bulgarian National Bank (BNB), which auctions government securities on behalf of the Finance Ministry, said in a statement.
The issue will be oversubscribed between 1.5 and 1.6 times and the yields are expected to range from 5.1% to 5.2%, one dealer told SeeNews.
The issue is the final batch of an up to 250 million levs issue of 10-year T-notes the Finance Ministry planned to offer this year.
Primary dealers will not be allowed to place more than 30 competitive bids in the auction, the central bank said.
