Bunds provide a benchmark against which other countries’ creditworthiness is viewed."}],[{"start":78.58,"text":"The end to the European Central Bank’s bond-buying programmes, which had bought up huge amounts of Bunds and other government debt during previous crises, was a major driver of the greater availability, he added."}],[{"start":91.77,"text":"Germany’s borrowing costs jumped in March in their biggest one-day move since 1997 after it announced a €1tn spending package that exempted defence spending from its constitutional debt brake."}],[{"start":null,"text":"
