Northern Territory Treasury Corporation10 Figure 3: Interest Rate Exposure of Maturing Debt as at 30 June 2014 Trading Margin An important influence on trading margins is the perception of liquidity. The relatively small size of the Territorys borrowing program does not promote significant trading activity. As such, the borrowing margin is more a reflection of the liquidity premium demanded by institutional investors for supporting NTTCs bond issuances. The implied trading margin between a Territory Government-issued bond and an interpolated AAA-rated state government fixed interest security has improved significantly throughout the course of the financial year, declining by around 0.15percent. Figure 4 shows NTTCs borrowing margin relative to the Commonwealth and AAA-rated CFAs.
