Around 4 billion euros in debt have been raised from international markets through two bond issues, market analysts confirmed to BNR. The amount was raised through issues of 9-year and 13-year bonds – marking the country’s first entry into the international market for the year. Analysts commented that the achieved yield is favorable for Bulgaria, with the most positive influence coming from expectations that in the summer of 2025 the country will receive the green light to adopt the euro.

BNR sources confirmed that EUR 2.25 billion were raised through 9-year bonds, while the remaining EUR 1.75 billion were raised through 13-year bonds. Traditionally, the Ministry of Finance releases information a day after the issuance, especially when the bonds are placed on international markets. According to the 2025 Budget, Bulgaria can take on up to EUR 9.3 billion in debt. So far, EUR 884 million have been borrowed from the domestic market.
