Foreigners buy over a third of Greek 6-month t-bills

Foreigners bought just over a third of the 1.95 billion euros ($2.52 billion) of 6-month T-bills Greece auctioned on Tuesday, the head of the country's debt agency PDMA told Reuters.
"Foreign take up was about 37 percent, we are satisfied that we continue to raise short-term funding unhindered," PDMA Chief Petros Christodoulou told Reuters.

In a previous 6-month T-bill auction in November, foreign investors bought about one-third of the amount sold.
