In the announcement from Government Debt Management, dated 28 March 2011, it is
stated that purchasers of foreign currency in upcoming Central Bank of Iceland
auctions can sell the Treasury their Treasury bills and bonds maturing before
year-end 2013 so as to finance the purchases. The foreign exchange transactions
will take place through the intermediation of market makers in the foreign
exchange market: Arion Bank, Íslandsbanki, and NBI (Landsbankinn). Today, the
Central Bank announced that the first auction would be held on 7 June, with
