| Abstract: | The author considers the Portuguese bond market and states that it is caught in a pincer grip. More liquidity is required to attract foreign investors but that can only be achieved if the trend for domestic investors to move to other euro markets is at least partly reversed. Some success in improving the situation has been achieved but there is much still to be done. The article deals with the following subjects: Factors attracting investors to bonds; Prime reason the Instituto de Gestao de Credito Publico was created out of two departments in the finance ministry; Significance of the issuance of fixed-rate Treasury bonds; Ways to simplify the structure of Portugal's sovereign debt. |
