Verdict

False

What we checked

Announced demand was €1.292 billion; the amount issued was €500 million in nominal terms.

The investigation

Investor orders express demand. Only allocated orders become issued debt. The release distinguishes these figures and describes advance refinancing of €500 million maturing in February 2027.

Context

Demand above supply can show investor interest. Unallocated orders do not become public revenue. The nominal amount alone also does not establish net cash receipts after fees.

Right of reply

The government highlights investor confidence and explains refinancing. No public reply specifically addressing this check located at closure.

How we reached the verdict

1,292 / 500 = 2.584: demand was about 2.58 times the nominal issue. Treating all demand as money received is false.

Limitations and unavailable information

Settlement accounts and fees are unavailable. We do not attribute this confusion to the government: its release distinguishes demand and issuance.
