Bonds
Borrowing set to rise
THE COST OF BORROWING for the state is set to rise as the premium for holding Irish bonds increased over 50points in the past week to 297 basis points. This is the premium paid to 10-year bond holders above that of German securities. NCB Stockbrokers say the rise is a result of uncertainty around the cost of the Anglo bailout.
