On November 22, the Bulgarian National Bank held an auction for the sale of government bonds with a maturity of 7.5 years and a fixed annual interest rate of 0.25%. The state loan totals 255 million euros.
In 2021, the Ministry of Finance already took a debt of 1.7 billion euros with a set limit in the state budget of 2.3 billion euros.
