EGB FUNDING UPDATE: Portugal Q3 Funding: Unchanged OT Issuance Target

EGB FUNDING UPDATE
  • Portugal has kept its PGB/OT and MTN issuance target for 2024 at E16.0bln.
  • At the end of June 2024, a total of E14.5bln had been raised from OT issuance - 91% of the annual issuance target.
  • This leaves just E1.5bln needing to be raised for the rest of this year. 
  • Total 2024 borrowing requirements are estimated at E15.9bln, compared to an estimate of E20.4bln in the Q2 funding plan. The decrease comes due to reduced estimates for the overall state deficit and net acquisitions of financial assets.
  • 2024 net financing needs are now E7.4bln, versus a Q2 estimate of E11.9bln.
  • Total expected net bill issuance has been revised to E3.4bln, versus a Q2 estimate of E4.7bln.
