BOE to aim for unwinding full stock of bond purchases at the end of 2023 or early 2024

  • The BOE lays out its plans to unwind its Corporate Bond Purchase Scheme (CBPS)
  • Corporate bond auctions will commence from the week starting 19 September
  • Only bonds that mature on or after 6 April 2024 will be eligible for sale via the first instance
  • Nominal value of bonds eligible for sale via auctions is currently £13 billion
  • The pace of auction sales will be gradual and responsive to prevailing market conditions

Some added details are that the auctions will typically be held twice a week, on Tuesday and Wednesday from 1100 to 1130 London time. And the average pace of sales during the auctions should be around £200 million per week.
