Gilt-uri britanice
UK 10-year gilt: 5.25% la data de 9 September 2026 · Bank of England IUDMNZC. Metodologie
Gilt-urile sunt obligațiuni emise de UK Debt Management Office pentru HM Treasury. Un gilt convențional plătește un cupon fix în sterline de două ori pe an și rambursează 100 de lire valoare nominală la o scadență declarată. Gilt-urile indexate scalează aceste fluxuri cu un indice de inflație publicat; gilt-urile verzi rămân credit britanic, cu o etichetă de utilizare a încasărilor.
Randamentul gilt pe 10 ani este rata de la care se spreadează ipotecile britanice, pensiile cu beneficiu definit și creditul în sterline. Tipărim seria Bank of England IUDMNZC pe tabloul live, cu data observației pe card — nu un screenshot nedatat.
