2014/15 Domestic Bond Programme Set at $8.0 Billion

15 May 2014

2014/15 Domestic Bond Programme Set at $8.0 Billion

In conjunction with Budget Economic and Fiscal Update 2014, the New Zealand Debt Management Office (NZDMO) has updated its domestic bond programme.

The 2014/15 domestic bond programme is set at $8.0 billion, $1.0 billion higher than forecast at Half-Year Economic and Fiscal Update (HYEFU) 2013.

Total issuance is $3.0 billion higher over the forecast period, owing to a greater cash requirement compared with the HYEFU 2013.
