The Greek government is going to the markets, as it has scheduled an auction for tomorrow, Wednesday, November 20, 2024, for the re-issuance of a 10-year government bond, maturing on June 15, 2034.
As the Public Debt Management Agency said in a statement, the fixed interest rate will be 3.375%, while the securities will be traded in dematerialised form.
According to the announcement, the purpose of the reissue is to meet investment demand and, at the same time, facilitate the operation of the secondary bond market.
