Ireland’s debt agency set out its issuance schedule for the current quarter today, saying it would hold a bond auction on 12 March.
The National Treasury Management Agency (NTMA) said details of the bond auction will be announced on Monday, 9 March.
It also plans to issue a new bond by syndication during the quarter, it said.
Last month the NTMA confirmed plans to issue €10 billion to €14 billion of bonds over the course of 2026.
The state body which is responsible for managing the Irish government’s assets and liabilities, issues a statement at the beginning of each calendar quarter outlining its bond auction plans for that quarter.
It said it also intends to conduct at least one syndicated bond deal during the year.
As in recent years, the NTMA does not expect to issue Treasury Bills during 2026.
“The €10 billion to €14 billion bond funding range we are announcing today for 2026 reflects the €15 billion in debt maturities next year,” Dave McEvoy, NTMA Director of Funding and Debt Management, said in December.
“The strong Exchequer funding position means we are well positioned entering 2026,” he added.
