The U.K. Debt Management Office issued GBP6 billion ($7.63
billion) in a 4.375% July 2054 gilt via a syndication on
Tuesday.
The sale was priced at GBP96.808 per GBP100 nominal, equating to
a gross redemption yield of 4.5699%, the DMO said.
Proceeds from the sale are expected to reach approximately

demand and market conditions, the DMO said.
