Czech Republic Republic Bond issuances

Overview

The Czech Ministry of Finance is conducting a second issuance of Republic Bonds for retail investors, specifically featuring a three-month short-term ‘Flexi Bond’. The subscription period for this issuance runs from August 24 to October 4, with an expected total volume of 30 billion CZK.

The Flexi Bond offers an annual interest rate of 3.75 percent, which is tied to the Czech National Bank’s two-week repo rate. If the central bank raises the rate during the subscription period, the yield increases; if the rate is lowered, the yield remains at 3.75 percent. A significant feature of these bonds is that the yields are exempt from the 15 percent income tax.

Investors can place orders electronically or at ČSOB branches, with a minimum investment of 1,000 CZK and a maximum of 3 million CZK per person. The bonds are designed to automatically reinvest at the end of the three-month term unless a payout is requested. This follows a previous issuance earlier in the year that saw households invest 74 billion CZK.
