LONDON - Turkey's longer-dated sovereign dollar bonds made solid gains on Thursday after the country's central bank slashed interest rates by 325 basis points to 16.5%.
The moves, which came in tandem with a rise in the lira, included a 1.7 cent jump in a 2030-maturing bond and 1-1.5 cents gains for most debt maturing from then up until 2045.
The central bank's rate cut on Thursday came after it had cut rates by 425 basis points in July.
