Bund futures dip after EU leaders agree on Ukraine lending

SINGAPORE, Dec 19 (Reuters) - German bund futures fell slightly in Asia hours on Friday after European Union leaders agreed to borrow cash to fund a 90 billion euro ($105 billion) loan to Ukraine.

Ten-year bund futures FGBLc1 slipped 22 ticks or around 0.2% to 127.35 for an implied yield of 2.86%, about a basis point higher than Thursday's cash close. Volume was very small outside of the contract's main trading session.

Germany issued about 426 billion euros in debt this year, according to the Federal Finance Agency's auction results.
