Government reduced domestic borrowing on the basis of treasury bills by around EUR 15 million on net basis, Ministry of Finance announced.
 
Ministry of Finance informed that auction of three- and six-month treasury bills in the amount of Denar 2.9 billion was held Tuesday, bearing interest rate of 4.2%, i.e. 4.1% respectively. On Wednesday, Denar 3.8 billion will be paid on the basis of repayment related already issued treasury bills, i.e. amount of newly issued treasury bills will be reduced by 24%.
