Debt securities totaling 150 million euros are offered at an auction today, BNR reporter Marta Mladenova informed.

The Ministry of Finance is offering 5-year zero-interest bonds. Since the beginning of 2021, the state has issued new debt on the domestic markets in the amount of EUR 250 million. The debt ceiling for the year set in the state budget is EUR 2.3 billion.
