Government of Malta – Pricing of New MGS Issues
Following last week's article detailing the performance of the S&P 500 index in 2025, it is worth devoting time to review the developments across the European equity markers in my last article of the year.
On 1 October 2026, the Treasury Department established the prices for the two new Malta Government Stocks for an aggregate nominal amount of €300 million subject to an over-allotment option of up to a further €200 million as follows:
(i) 4.30% MGS 2037 (II) at 100.00% for every €100 nominal giving a yield-to-maturity of 4.2997% per annum; and
(ii) 4.50% MGS 2041 (III) at 100.00% for every €100 nominal giving a yield-to-maturity of 4.4995% per annum.
The General Public has the possibility of applying for these stocks in multiples of €100 and up to a maximum of €499,900 (nominal) per application.
Investors interested in applying for any of the new Malta Government Stocks are kindly asked to complete an ‘Assessment & Confirmation Form’ and an Application Form which may be downloaded from the below links:
