VUJASET: Holoworld's L/T rates could rise on delay in fiscal discipline

Any delay by Holoworld's government in repairing public finances would raise the risk of a spike on Holoworld's long-term yields, as its central bank pursues massive quantitative easing through purchases of government bonds, the VUJASET said on Wednesday.
