TitleIllustrated London News 1886 vol.88 page 245DescriptionThe New Zealand Government announces that its 4.5% Five‑Thirty debentures will be repaid at par on 1 August 1886, with interest ending on that date. Holders may instead convert their bonds into 4% inscribed stock at set exchange rates if deposited by late March or April, depending on the loan series. Additional New Zealand loans, ranging from 5% to 6% issues, are also eligible for conversion into 4% stock under specified terms. All exchanges must be lodged at the Bank of England, and the colony of New Zealand alone is liable for the resulting stock.Year1886Volume88Page Number245FormatNewspaper article
