Greece to auction 1.0bn euros of 3 month T-bills on Feb 11

ATHENS: Greece will auction 1.0 billion euros ($1.36 billion) of three-month treasury bills on February 11 to refinance a maturing issue, the country's debt agency PDMA said on Friday.

The settlement date will be February 14.

Only primary dealers will be allowed to participate and no commission will be paid. Monthly T-bill sales are Greece's sole remaining source of market funding.

Athens has a stock of about 15 billion euros of T-bills that it regularly refinances with the help of crisis-struck Greek banks.
