NEW YORK: Freddie Mac said Friday it plans to sell $3.0 billion of reference bills on Monday.
The scheduled offerings are:
$1.5 billion of three-month bills due Sept. 6, 2011 to be sold Monday and settle Tuesday; and
$1.5 billion of six-month bills due Dec. 5, 2011 to be sold Monday and settle Tuesday.
The bills will be sold over the Internet in a Dutch auction. In such uniform price auctions, successful bidders pay only the price of the lowest accepted bid rather than the actual price as in a conventional multiple-price auction.
Bids will be accepted from authorized dealers from 8:00 a.m. (1200 GMT) until 9:45 a.m.(1345 GMT).
