On Wednesday, the Slovak Republic raised 1 billion euros ($1.16 billion) in new 30-year government bonds with maturity in 2051 in a syndicated transaction. The bond carries a 1.00% coupon. 115 investors have shown interest in the issue, while the total demand reached over 3.6 billion euros. A coupon worth 1.00% per year represents historically the smallest coupon yield of Slovak government bonds with a maturity of over 15 years.
