The Ministry of Finance (MF) borrowed RON 2.187 billion from banks on Thursday through two benchmark government bond issues, according to data published by the National Bank of Romania (BNR).
Thus, the MF raised RON 788 million through a government bond issue with a residual maturity of 73 months, at an average yield of 7.51% per annum. The nominal value of the issue was RON 400 million, and banks subscribed RON 1.042 billion. An additional auction is scheduled for Friday, through which the state wants to attract another RON 60 million at the yield set on Thursday for bonds.
The ministry also raised RON 1.399 billion through another issue of government bonds, with a residual maturity of 22 months, at an average yield of 7.33% per annum. The value of the issue was RON 400 million, and banks subscribed RON 2.194 billion. An additional auction is scheduled for Friday, through which the state wants to attract another RON 60 million at the yield set on Thursday for bonds.
The Ministry of Finance (MF) has planned, in June 2025, loans from commercial banks worth RON 5.1 billion, to which can be added the sum of RON 705 million through additional sessions of non-competitive bids related to bond auctions.
The total amount of RON 5.805 billion is RON 255 million less than the RON 6.06 billion planned in May this year and will be used to refinance public debt and finance the state budget deficit.
