Accordingly, the State Treasury offered G-bonds of four maturities – seven years, 10 years, 15 years and 20 years – each valued at 1 trillion VND.

A total of 110 billion VND was mobilised from seven-year bonds with an annual interest rate of 2.24 percent, the same as that of the January 15 auction.
