GILT SYNDICATION: 5.25% Jan-41 gilt syndication tap preview

Jun-08 14:37
  • We expect the 5.25% Jan-41 gilt syndication to take place tomorrow (Tuesday) but with a chance of Wednesday.
  • The gilt was launched via syndication in October for GBP9.0bln and then tapped also via syndication in January for GBP7.25bln. Both transactions saw books well in excess of GBP100bln.
  • However, both transactions were also when the gilt was in the long-dated bucket and it has since migrated down to the medium-dated bucket. To date there have been no auctions for the gilt.
  • After last month’s 10-year syndication saw GBP15bln sold, there is only GBP5bln remaining in the medium syndication bucket. We think that it would be unlikely to see a transaction this small, however, and pencil in GBP6-8bln as a more realistic target size – with a skew to a potentially larger transaction.
  • We expect continued strong demand for this gilt, particularly as it has not been selected to be reopened via auction in FQ2 (Jul-Sep).
