Germany raised its planned debt sales for the last three months of the year, capping a record surge in issuance in 2020 to fund stimulus to offset damage from the coronavirus.

The federal government will issue 50.5 billion euros ($58.9 billion) of bonds and bills next quarter, 6 billion euros more than originally planned at the end of last year, the Federal Finance Agency said Monday.
