FRANKFURT (MNI) – The European Central Bank announced on Monday
that it had settled no bond buys in the week ending April 13, extending
its bond buy pause to five consecutive weeks.
As a result, the cumulative total still on the bank’s balance sheet
remained at E214.0 billion. As usual, the central bank said it will seek
to sterilize the entire amount through a quick tender to collect
one-week term deposits.
The deposit tender, to be held Tuesday at 0930 GMT/0530 ET, will be
conducted as a variable-rate operation with a maximum bid rate of 1.0%,
the ECB said. The fixed-term deposits can be used as collateral in the
Eurosystem’s credit operations.
