#1: 0.125% Jan-24

GILT AUCTION PREVIEW
  • Issuance for the week will kick off on Tuesday with GBP3.50bln of the 3-year 0.125% Jan-24 gilt on offer.
  • This is the largest auction size since the 0.125% Jan-24 gilt was issued (with all other auctions to date having been for GBP3.25bln) and the largest auction of a three year gilt since July.
  • Demand has been fairly consistent for the 0.125% Jan-24 gilt with bid-to-covers ranging from 2.28x-2.58x and tails ranging from 0.2-0.3bp.
  • The last auction saw a 2.58x bid-to-cover and 0.3bp tail. Despite the slightly larger auction size, we would expect strong demand this week.
  • We note that the 0.125% Jan-24 gilt is due to be sold again in April and May (but there is no auction scheduled for June).
  • Timing: Results will be available shortly after the auction closes at 10:00GMT with a further GBP875mln available to successful bidders via the PAOF.
