On the same date, the first sale of a new floating-rate government bond with semi-annual coupon payments over a 4-year (1456-day) term will also take place.

On the following day, Tuesday, January 6, the Treasury will offer a two-year (728-day) lease certificate with semi-annual rent payments for direct sale to investors.
