German Bubill Auction Sees Improved Demand

224 days ago

(RTTNews) - Germany sold its 6-month treasury bills known as Bubills at negative yield on Monday as safe-haven demand recovered amid the lingering uncertainty over a Spanish bailout request, auction data from Bundesbank revealed.

The country raised EUR 2.420 billion from the sale of its April 2013 treasury discount paper against a target of EUR 4 billion.

The yield on the short-term debt was -0.0218 percent compared with -0.0147 percent in the previous sale on September 10.

The bid-to-cover ratio, which reflects demand, rose to 2.3 from 1.5 last month.
