The advantages of investing in the TEZAUR Program

Also, government bonds issued under the TEZAUR Program are transferable and can be redeemed in advance. In addition, an investor has the freedom to make one or more subscriptions within an issue. Investors have the possibility to cancel subscriptions already made only during the subscription period, by submitting a request.
Natural persons who have reached the age of 18 on the date of subscription are eligible. The funds obtained by the Ministry of Finance as the issuer, as a result of the issue of government bonds, will be used to finance the budget deficit and refinance the public debt.
