Matures on 25th Feb. Bought on 20th Nov 2023. Overall return 3.91% equiv 3.1% p.a. As a former Bank Group employee I have oodles of capital losses so I regard this return as effectively tax free.
I get 2.41% p.a. but let's not fight about it. 2.36% p.a. if you have to pay 0.3% commission.
so that was probably issued in 2021 during height of covid, great for irish government, not great for the bond investor who is now down 15 %, of course you get your money back if you wait until 2031 but 100 euros in 2031 will be worth alot less effectively than 100 euros in 2021 before the big inflation. Just shows you the dangers of supposedly safe government bonds
Yes, I was referring to GoodBody and 0.3% would be doing well at that. They tell me Degiro do it for buttons. I just found it more comfortable dealing with GB, no real reason for that.

If you mean by "real" inflation adjusted, I guess I was just running on the spot.
You bought security and that was what was delivered, and you didn't lose spending power. That's a win.
