Jan 17, 2014 (LBO) - Sri Lanka's overnight market rates and medium term bond yields picked up slightly ahead of an expected liquidity flood from a sovereign bond sale, dealers said.

But a 3-year 01 Jan 2017 was quoted 8.10/30 percent Friday up from 8.05/8.15 percent levels last week.

A 4-year 01 April 2018 bond was quoted 8.83/87 Friday from around 8.65/70 percent last week.

A 01 July 2019 bond, auctioned last Friday at a weighted average yield of 8.65 percent was now traded at 8.95/9.05 percent levels, dealers said. Overnight repo rates were around 7.00 to 7.25 percent Friday, up from 6.80/7.00 percent levels a week earlier dealers said.
