Primary Auctions

Last week the Finance Ministry announced the results of the 3rd auction of inflation-adjusted Tenge-denominated 3-month T-bills that it held on 27 August. Only two primary dealers participated in the auction, one of whom bought 100% of the placed volume—KZT 300m at the fixed annual yield of 9.75%.

***

Unlike Tenge-denominated T-bills, US Dollar-denominated 3-month T-bills remained in demand. The 21st auction of these securities was 4 times oversubscribed. Keeping the annual yield flat—8.41%, the Finance Ministry raised USD 11.6m, though its target was only USD 3m.
