Sticky Note
Over-The-Counter (or OTC) is a security traded in some context other than on a formal exchange such as the NYSE, TSX, AMEX, etc. The phrase "over-the-counter" can be used to refer to stocks that trade via a dealer network as opposed to on a centralized exchange. It also refers to debt securities and other financial instruments such as derivatives, which are traded through a dealer network.

the entire issue subscribed

is at the same price, bid numbers 5 and 6 would get allotment in proportion so that the notified

amount is not exceeded. In the above case each bidder would get Rs. 50 crore. Bid numbers 7

and 8 are rejected as the price quoted is less than the cut-off price.

Allotment of G-Secs: Yield Based Auction …(1/2)

• Yield Based Auction: A yield based auction is

generally conducted when a new Government

security is issued.

– Investors bid in yield terms up to two decimal places (for

example, 8.19 per cent, 8.20 per cent, etc.).

– Bids are arranged in ascending order and the cut-off yield is

arrived at the yield corresponding to the notified amount of

the auction.

– The cut-off yield is taken as the coupon rate for the

security. Successful bidders are those who have bid at or

below the cut-off yield.

– Bids which are higher than the cut-off yield are rejected.

Allotment of G-Secs: Yield Based Auction…(2/2)

September 8, 2008 under T+1 cycle.

Page 61: s3,4.pdf

Allotment of G-Secs: Yield Based Auction…Cont’d

• The issuer would get the notified amount by accepting bids up to 5. Since

the bid number 6 also is at the same yield, bid numbers 5 and 6 would get

allotment pro-rata so that the notified amount is not exceeded. In the above

case each would get Rs. 50 crore. Bid numbers 7 and 8 are rejected as the

yields are higher than the cut-off yield.

When Issued Market

– When Issued Market (when, as and if issued)

• WI transactions would commence on the notification date and it

would cease on the working day immediately preceding the date of

issue.

be both buyer and seller in a WI transaction.

When Issued Market

– ‘When Issued’ market has two basic advantages: -

– (i) It facilitates the distribution process for Government

securities by stretching the actual distribution period for

each issue and allowing the market more time to absorb

large issues without disruption.

– (ii) ‘When Issued’ market also facilitates price discovery

process by reducing uncertainties surrounding auctions.

Underwriting in Auctions

• Role of PDs

– One day prior to the auction, bids are received from the

Primary Dealers (PD) indicating the amount they are

willing to underwrite and the fee expected

– Auction committee of RBI, on the basis of the market

condition finalize the amount to be underwritten

• In case the auction is fully subscribed, the PDs need not subscribe

to the issue unless they have bid for it

Bought Deal

• Bought deals work as follows:

– The underwriters offer a potential issuer of debt securities a firm bid to purchase a specified amount of securities with a certain coupon rate and maturity

– The issuer is given a day to accept or reject the bid

• If accepted, the underwriters have ‘bought the deal’ and can sell the securities to other investment firms or/and institutional investors
