Brazil central bank accepts no offers in spot dollar, reverse swap auctions

SAO PAULO, April 24 (Reuters) - Brazil's central bank did not accept any offers in a spot U.S. dollar auction and a reverse FX swap auction it had called for Friday, according to statements published on its website.

The bank had announced on Thursday it would offer up to $1 billion in the spot auction and 20,000 contracts in the reverse swap operation, which is equivalent to buying U.S. dollars in the futures market. (Reporting by Gabriel Araujo and Fabricio de Castro; Editing by Toby Chopra)

All Fixed Income News

In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Lower-quality debt securities generally offer higher yields, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes due to potential changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to loss.

Before investing, consider the funds' investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses. Contact Fidelity for a prospectus or, if available, a summary prospectus containing this information. Read it carefully.
