NTMA: Eurozone debt solution is key to enabling markets return

The National Treasury Management Agency (NTMA) has said that it hopes to return to the bond markets before the end of 2012, or early next year.

The NTMA is also backing the Taoiseach's insistence that Ireland will not require a second bailout, saying investors are satisfied the country will be able to begin raising money before the end of the EU/IMF programme.
