New low on six-month BOT State bonds

(ANSA) - Rome, March 27 - The Bank of Italy said Friday that the Treasury sold seven billion euros' worth of six-month BOT bonds, set to mature in September 2015, at an auction, with the average interest rate dropping to a new low of 0.04% from the previous low of 0.09% last month.
    A so-called safeguard clause means retailers will not have negative yields, the Treasury said.
