Funky Friday


For those of us who eat lots of carrots, you may have noticed that the updated bond auction proposal had a typo on the second page. This has been corrected by the CBK and attached is the corrected copy of the prospectus. If you do not eat your veggies, then this update is not for you. No substantial changes in the T-bill space as interest remains pegged to the incoming maturities. A significant increase in the maturities has resulted in a significant increase in the interest shown in this week’s auction, with the 91 T-bill continuing to be the most popular option. Attached are these results in full for your perusal. Below is a snapshot of what is at play for your consideration in the secondary space. Happy hunting!
