The New Zealand Debt Management Office (NZDMO) has released the results of government bond repurchase (reverse tap tender) number 8002 held today.

Yesterday NZ DMO announced its intention to buy back $500m of the April 2015 government bonds so the results of only purchasing $144 mln comes as a surprise. A total of $628 mln was offered up for repurchase so there was ample supply to complete the transaction.
