BMA-PGBI Closing Bell

27 Sep, 2005

Yields on the BMA-PGBI decreased by approximately 6 pps and its value increased by 0.05% to close at 98.4889. Yields increased in both the short and long tenors by approximately 1 basis points while they decreased by approximately 2 basis points among the medium tenors. This decrease in yields in the medium tenors, coupled with interest rate return, more than negated the increase in yields in the short and long tenors, and thus resulted in the increase in value.
