The Ministry of Finance further stated that the 364-day bills will be issued bi-weekly through the primary auction with settlement being the transaction date plus one working day.

 Securities of 2-year up to 10-year will be issued through the book-building method.  Consistent with the MTDS, Government may announce tap-ins/reopening of other existing instruments depending on market conditions, the Finance Ministry stated.

Developing the calendar for the period

According to the Finance Ministry, the Calendar is developed based on the revised Net Domestic Financing provided in the 2021 Mid-Year Budget, the 2021 domestic maturities, the 2021 Annual Borrowing & Recovery Plan and the 2021-2024 Medium-Term Debt Management Strategy.

 “It indicates the securities that are intended to be issued in respect of Government’s Public Sector Borrowing Requirements for the period October to December 2021”.

Ministry of Finance

 In addition, the Calendar also takes into consideration Government’s liability management program, market developments (both domestic and international) and the Treasury & Debt Management objective of lengthening the maturity profile of the public debt.

Therefore, the Ministry of Finance indicated that the figures provided are based on its debt management strategies and current market conditions. The government, through the Finance Ministry, cautioned that the amounts stated in the Calendar are indicative, to guide the market and may be revised when transaction adverts are published. Government intends to update the Issuance Calendar on a monthly rolling basis, to reflect a full quarter financing program.

Government expressed optimism that this October to December 2021 Calendar will meet the requirements of market participants.  Government further assured all stakeholders and the public that it continues to strive for greater predictability and transparency in the domestic bond market.
