Debt Sale Disappoints

INDONESIA

Yields in Indonesia are higher across the curve today, the sell off extending after weak demand at auction yesterday.

  • The auctions yesterday saw the government sell IDR 13.6tn against a target of IDR 30tn. The target was reduced last week from IDR 35tn. Concerned over the elevated cost of borrowing amid the global bond rout Indonesia floated the idea of tapping funds left over from last year to alleviate pressure on its sovereign debt market.
  • According to the finance minister 10.8% of incoming bids for 2036 and 2051 debt combined were accepted, compared with 34.8% for the other tenors. Global funds took up 3.7% of all the debt sold, down sharply from 14.1% at the last sale two weeks ago.
