Smallest Government inflation linked tender in 2014 still draws plenty of support with the average weighted accepted yield recorded at 2.56% (previously 2.67%)
9th Oct 14, 2:16pm by Craig Simpson

The results from the latest inflation indexed bond offer by the Treasury's Debt Management Office have been released.

The coverage ratio was marginally down on the July tender and again a majority of bids were unsuccessful.

The current yield on the NZ Govt bond with the longest duration and which is quoted on the NZDX (i.e. matures in 2023) is approximately 4.08%.

The difference between the yield on the NZ Govt bond maturing in 2023 and the average weighted inflation index yield in today's tender is approximately 1.52% which is just below the current NZ CPI of 1.60%.
