Banks offered RON1.7 billion at today’s tender, central bank data showed.
At the previous similar tender June 10, the ministry sold RON300 million in five-year paper at an average yield of 5.07% a year.
The ministry plans to sell state treasuries worth RON2.98 billion in June, down from the RON3.75 billion raised a month earlier.
So far in 2013, Romania sold a little over RON27 billion in leu-denominated notes and EUR1.08 billion at two euro-denominated auctions on the local market. The ministry also tapped international markets for $1.5 billion at a US dollar-bond auction in February. (EUR1=RON4.4581)
