(News Today) - Indonesia sold IDR6.35 trillion ($685.4 million) of bonds at an auction Tuesday, more than the IDR5 trillion targeted, Rahmat Waluyanto, director general at the finance ministry, said. The ministry received a total of IDR17.11 trillion of incoming bids, underscoring strong investor appetite for emerging market government debt papers amid widening fiscal problems in the euro zone.
The one-year treasury bills were priced to yield 6.748%, while the five-year FR27, 15-year FR40, and 20-year FR 52 were priced to yield 8.339%, 9.608%, and 10.213%, respectively. The yields of the bonds fell by between 1 and 8 basis points compared with that in the secondary market yesterday, reflecting a better sentiment amid widening euro zone worries.
Foreign holdings of Indonesian government debt stood at IDR144.8 trillion as of June 4, up from IDR144.1 trillion at end-May but lower than IDR148.1 trillion recorded at the end of April, data from the finance ministry showed. Waluyanto said last week the government has raised around 54% of its targeted gross debt issuance for this year, and the latest auction results show that the country is on track to meet its target.
