MNI EGB Issuance, Redemption and Cash Flow Matrix – W/C 1 April, 2024

  • Germany, Spain, France and Finland are all due to issue in the week ahead. We pencil in estimated gross issuance for the week at E33.8bln, around double the E16.8bln of this week. In addition, we expect to receive a funding update from Ireland.
  • We see Greece, Finland and Portugal as the most likely to hold syndications in the week. It may take a little longer past the Easter holidays for the Q2 syndication programmes to get up to speed, but given the negative cash flows seen this week, we could see some early transactions.
  • The week ahead sees redemptions of E28.7bln with the majority (E23.5bln) from a Bobl. There is also E3.2bln of a formerly 10-year EU-bond and E1.8bln of a formerly 5-year GGB.
  • Coupon payments will be E2.3bln (of which E1.2bln are Italian and E0.7bln EU-bonds).
  • This leaves estimated net flows for the week at positive E2.7bln, versus this week’s negative E21.2bln.
