LONDON, May 9 (Reuters) - Britain will pay a 4% coupon
on a new government bond maturing in October 2063, which it aims
to launch via a syndication next week, subject to market
conditions, the United Kingdom Debt Management Office said on
Tuesday.
The coupon on the gilt is the highest for a new ultra-long
gilt since 2009, when Britain launched a bond maturing in
January 2060 which also pays a 4% coupon.
