The DSL and DTC issuance calendars for the third quarter are shown below. Three reopenings of Dutch State Loans (DSLs) are planned in the third quarter. In July the 10-year DSL 2026 will be reopened. Traditionally, August is an auction-free month for DSLs. In September there will be two auctions. First, the new 5 year DSL 2022 will be reopened for the first time. Finally, the off-the-run DSL 2037 will be reopened. The third quarter has six auction dates for Dutch Treasury Certificates (DTCs).
