    Basic information - T-bills and T-bonds

    TS (T-bonds and T-bills) offered at auctions held by the National Bank of Poland are dedicated for the institutional investor groups and are commonly called "wholesale" instruments. They fulfil the basic role in meeting the State Budget borrowing requirements. Relatively high face value of the securities offered at auctions (PLN 1,000 for a T-bond and PLN 10,000 for a T-bill) is a feature of the wholesale market of the TS. The direct access to auctions is limited to PDs and Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego (state owned bank). Investors that have no such status can place their bids through an entity that is a direct participant of an auction. Basic characteristic of wholesale TS is presented in the table below.
