The Ukrainian government will hold a $1 billion U.S.-backed bond sale before a presidential election scheduled for May 25, Finance Minister Oleksandr Shlapak said. The five-year bonds with U.S. guarantees will be sold at a yield of as much as 2.9 percent, according to a government notice published on its website today, less than the 5 percent rate offered by Russia in a bailout deal in December.
