Germany's debt issuance plan unchanged for Q2, says finance agency

BERLIN, March 23 (Reuters) - Germany's debt issuance plan for the second quarter of 2026 remains unchanged from its December forecast, the Federal Finance Agency said on Monday.

Under the existing plan, the government intends to issue a record-high sum of around 512 billion euros ($600 billion) in securities this year.

Germany aims to raise 318 billion euros on the capital market and a further 176 billion euros on the money market, both through auctions, in 2026.

The agency, which manages Germany's debt, said the next update or confirmation of its issuance plan for the third quarter will be published in June.
