Finally, Series D has a tenure of 10 years and coupon range between 8.3 percent and 8.9 percent.
"All proceed will be used to fund BTN's loan expansion that is still tentative, and at the same, time support the government's 1 million-houses program," BTN director Adi Setianto said in Jakarta on Tuesday.

It collected Rp 157.52 trillion in public funds during the period, a growth of almost 22 percent yoy. (bbn)
