Ireland sells €500 million of its 15-Year bond by auction
The National Treasury Management Agency (NTMA) has completed an auction of €500 million of the benchmark 15-Year Irish Government bond, 2.4% Treasury Bond 2030, at a yield of 1.563%.
Total bids received amounted to €1,576 million which was 3.15 times the amount on offer.
| Maturity | Amount | Yield | Cover |
|---|---|---|---|
| 15 May 2030 | €500m | 1.563% | 3.15 times |
With the completion of today’s auction the NTMA has raised €8.5 billion in the bond markets this year.
Ireland is already halfway towards its target of raising between 12 billion and 15 billion euros of long-term bonds this year following two syndicated deals including the sale of its first 30-year bond sale at record low interest rates last week.
