- Hungary Around the Clock
Last week, an astonishing amount of Ft 370 billion flowed into retail government securities, according to data from the state debt manager ÁKK.
The extraordinary demand is due, among other things, to the fact that several Premium government bond series recently paid out 18-19% interest based on 2023 inflation.
Gross sales for the ninth week of 2025 were distributed as follows: Fixed government bond Ft 166.4 billion, Bonus government bond Ft 151.7 billion, government bond Plus Ft 26.3 billion, Treasury Savings Bills Ft 18.0 billion, and Premium government bond Ft 7.2 billion.
Some Ft 1.5 trillion government bonds have been sold since the beginning of the year, including reinvested interest payments.
