The Riksbank to offer USD loans on 13 May

The Riksbank is to offer additional USD loans. Loans totalling USD 10 billion will be provided in an auction held on 13 May for the Riksbank's primary monetary policy counterparties.

The loans, which will be provided against collateral, have a time to maturity of 88 days and the payment date is 15 May, which means that the loans will fall due on 11 August 2009. As in previous USD auctions, a minimum interest rate will be set that is related to the expected policy rate in the USA.
