A monetary policy counterparty that wants to participate in the auction of 21 January must register the commercial paper programmes the counterparty intends to use no later than 15.00 hours on Friday 16 January.

 

Notification of participation in the programme is to be made no later than 12.00 hours on 21 January if no such notification has been submitted previously. Payment date is Tuesday 27 January. The maturity of the loan is 84 days.

 

The Riksbank intends to carry out auctions at approximately two-week intervals until further notice.
