The yield was 4 bps to 9 bps lower than the previous Sukuk auction, which was able to reduce the cost of funds for the government. For the record, the three series recorded a Bid to Cover Ratio (BTC) each of 1x.

Overall, the total bid for the additional Sukuk auction (Green Shoe Option) yesterday was worth a total of IDR 3.41 trillion, with a nominal won of IDR 2.63 trillion. Meanwhile, this auction received positive sentiment from BI’s decision to keep the BI 7-DRRR benchmark interest rate low at 3.50%.
