These Japanese government bonds are issued in one of two ways: (i) syndication, which involves a negotiation with approx 40 representatives of a 200 strong syndicate representing financial firms. The negotiations relate to coupon rate and the quantity of bonds to be issued. These negotiations are carried out several weeks before issue date and the eventual price is decided by bidding. (ii) or, public auction. Bidders submit bids to the Bank of Japan and the Ministry of Finance will decide the quantities to be issued.
