TREE NEWS update: The Agricultural Development Bank of China issued 8 billion yuan of 3-year bonds at a yield of 1.2319%, versus an expected 1.2300%, with a bid-to-cover ratio of 1.98 and a marginal ratio of 4.44. It also issued 4.5 billion yuan of 10-year bonds at 1.6344%, below the expected 1.6500%, with a bid-to-cover ratio of 8.09 and a marginal ratio of 1.34.
Agricultural Development Bank of China Issues 3-Year and 10-Year Bonds
The split in demand is the story here: the 10-year tranche cleared below expected yield with a bid-to-cover near 8x, while the 3-year priced marginally above expectations on far thinner cover. That points to investors favoring duration over the short end at these levels, a curve signal rather than a simple strong-auction read. Policy-bank issuance is a direct gauge of onshore yuan liquidity appetite, so whether this long-end skew persists in coming policy-bank deals is the open question worth watching.
