UK to auction £5 billion of 4⅜% Treasury Gilt 2028 next week

LONDON - The UK Debt Management Office (DMO) announced Tuesday it will auction £5 billion of 4⅜% Treasury Gilt 2028 on July 29, with settlement scheduled for the following day.

The auction will open at 9:00 am London time and close at 10:00 am, according to the press release statement. The gilts will mature on March 7, 2028, and carry interest payment dates of March 7 and September 7.

This issuance will be fungible with previous issues, bringing the nominal outstanding amount after the auction to £40,792.4 million. The securities carry the ISIN code GB00BSQNRC93.

The DMO noted that bids may be made on either a competitive or non-competitive basis, with Gilt-edged Market Makers permitted to bid through the Bloomberg Bond Auction System during the specified auction window.

Following the main auction, a Post Auction Option Facility will be available between 12:30 pm and 1:00 pm London time, potentially allowing for an additional amount of gilt equivalent to 25% of the nominal amount allocated at the auction.

The DMO specified that the gilt is not currently strippable, meaning it cannot be separated into principal and interest components until officially designated by a future notice.

For this particular auction, applications will not be accepted from members of the Approved Group of Investors, the DMO stated.

The next interest payment date for these securities is September 7, 2025, which will be a standard coupon payment.
