TREE NEWS update: Ningbo issued six tranches of local government bonds totaling 102.84 billion yuan, including a 15-year toll-road special bond of 3.53 billion yuan at a 1.94% coupon with a 1.37x marginal bid-to-cover ratio. A 5-year land-reserve special bond raised 9.35 billion yuan at 1.36%, and a 7-year land-reserve bond raised 14.15 billion yuan at 1.46%. A 30-year special bond of 18.47 billion yuan priced at 2.18%, while a 15-year general special bond of 51.95 billion yuan drew a 94.00x marginal ratio.
Ningbo Issues 102.84B Yuan in Local Government Bonds Across Six Tranches
The standout here is the split in demand rather than the headline total: the 15-year general special bond's 94x marginal ratio sits alongside a 1.37x ratio on the toll-road tranche, suggesting appetite is concentrated in the largest, most generic paper rather than project-linked debt. The land-reserve tranches pricing at the low end of the curve reinforce that the market is paying up for duration and quasi-sovereign comfort. Whether that divergence between general and project-linked special bonds persists is the open question for local-government supply.
