The ministry had planned to raise 30 million lei (EUR6.82 million) at today’s auction, on top of the planned RON200 million sold in the reopening of the bond issue Monday.
The 10-year bond, launched on the local market in January 2013, carries a coupon of 5.85% a year.
The ministry sold debt worth RON3.95 billion in June, up from the initial target of RON3.44 million.
So far in 2014, the country sold RON21.37 billion in leu-denominated notes and EUR678.7 million at three euro-denominated auctions on the local market.
The ministry also tapped international markets for $2 billion at a two-part U. S. dollar bond issue in January, and raised EUR1.25 billion in a ten-year Eurobond sale in April. (EUR1=RON4.3971)
