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 4 July 2025, the Treasury announced the issue of two new Malta Government Stocks for an aggregate nominal amount of €250 million subject to an over-allotment option of up to a further €150 million.

The 2 new fixed-rate stocks are:

  • The 3.40% MGS 2035 (IV)
  • The 3.80% MGS 2040 (II)

The prices of these two new MGSs will be announced on Thursday 10 July 2025.

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.

For applications in excess of €500,000 (nominal), a tendering process will apply.

Subscriptions for the General Public open on Monday 14 July 2025 and close on Wednesday 16 July 2025. On the other hand, tenders in the form of sealed bids will open on Friday 18 July 2025 and close on the same day at 12:00 hrs (noon) – or earlier at the discretion of the Accountant General.

Further information is available in the Offering Circular dated 4 July 2025 issued by the Government of Malta. Pricing details will be announced on our website on Thursday 10 July 2025 in the afternoon.
