  • We expect the transaction to take place tomorrow with a transaction size of E11-15bln.
  • The latest EU investor update states that a further E13-15bln of SURE funds are expected to be raised before the programme is completed, with the bulk of the funding completed by the end of H1.

The fourth transaction in January saw E14bln of 7/30-year issuance. On March 9 E9bln of the 15-year was sold while on March 23 a dual tranche 5/25-year was launched.
  • For the past transactions, books opened at 7:50-8:00 UK time / 8:50-9:00CET.
