The average interest rate, weighted by the amount invested at each rate, is
5.204 percent at the end of December 2006.
Similarly, the average number of years to maturity, weighted by the amounts maturing,
is 7.246 years.
Maturity dates for special issues are June 30 of the years
shown in the above table. When short-term certificates of
indebtedness mature, they are reinvested in special-issue bonds
having maturities generally ranging from 1 to 15 years. Thus,
for each interest rate shown for special-issue bonds, there is
usually a range of maturity years.
