According to the Ministry of finance the non-residents made no applications.
Interesting feature of the auction is that the Ministry of Finance made an
attempt to lower the yields of two-year bonds. It was achieved due to
conducting additional offering, and not all investors, whose competitive bids
were made not only higher than the cutoff rate, but at this rate also, found out
about it on time. As a result, some bids that had to be satisfied were not
satisfied. It arouse justified discontent among the investors.
On the other hand, the discontent of the investors regarding the
dissatisfaction of their bids means that the market is accepting a new return
level. Considering a very high liquidity of the banks in tenge, constantly
growing volume of the assets of pension funds, as well as the deficit of
financial instruments on the market, it can be assumed that the Ministry of
Finance will have a success in this game of lowering the yield of MEOKAM
further.
