EGB Supply: W/C 19 February, 2024 (2/2)

EUROZONE ISSUANCE
  • On Friday, Italy will come to the market to hold a BTP Short Term / BTPei auction. We expect to see the launch of the new BTP Short Term maturing 28 January 2026 but don’t have a strong conviction on which BTPeis will be on offer. However, if we don’t see the 0.10% May-33 BTPei (ISIN: IT0005482994) reopened, we would look for a new long 10-year BTPei to be launched via syndication, potentially as early as the first quarter of the year. There is also a chance that a new 10-year BTPei could potentially be launched via auction. Details will be announced on Tuesday.
  • Note that subscriptions for the next retail-only Belgium State Bonds (Bons d’Etat) will open on Thursday 22 February. Belgium plans to launch a new 1-year issue (ISIN: BE3871294240) and a new 3-year issue (ISIN: BE3871295254). The subscription window is planned to be open until Friday 1 March but there is a possibility of an early close. The BDA has announced that there will be a combined limit of E6.0bln across the two issues.

NET NOMINAL FLOWS: The week ahead sees E4.6bln of redemptions: E4.0bln from a formerly 10-year EFSF bond and USD0.7bln from a Slovenian USD bond. Coupons for the week sum to E1.5bln including E0.9bln Austrian. This leaves estimated net flows for the week at positive E18.5bln, compared to negative E8.4bln this week.
