Data Change: Kuwait - Public debt yields
Thursday, 23 Mar 2017 09:05 ET
By Daniel Luckenbach
Summary
January 2017 -- In reporting yields on public debt, the source has terminated short-term instruments and added long-term instruments (three monthly series 1996-2016, replaced by four from 2011).
Detail

In response, we have archived the predecessors (August 1996 to June 2016) by marking their metadata and catalog entires as "discontinued." The replacements start at July 2011. Figures are percent per annum (% p.a.) not seasonally adjusted (NSA).

The series reside in the historical catalog (Kuwait » Financial » Public debt yields) and are:

  • IR%TB03MUM.IKWT = [DISCONTINUED] Average Interest Rate on Treasury Bills - 3 months, (% p.a., NSA)
  • IR%TB06MUM.IKWT = [DISCONTINUED] Treasury Bills - 6 months
  • IR%TB2GYUM.IKWT = [DISCONTINUED] Treasury Bills - 2 years and greater
  • IR%GB3YUM.IKWT  = Interest rates: Public debt - 3 years, (% p.a., NSA)
  • IR%GB5YUM.IKWT  = Public debt - 5 years
  • IR%GB7YUM.IKWT  = Public debt - 7 years
  • IR%GB10YUM.IKWT = Public debt - 10 years

Interest rates on 1- and 2-year Treasury bonds are still being actively reported and republished in Data Buffet.

Because catalog locations are subject to change, the upper-right search box on DataBuffet.com provides a "find in catalog" mode that accepts a mnemonic.
