Auction


Sale of an item to the highest bidder. (1) A method commonly used in exchange control regimes for the allocation of foreign exchange.

The average issuing price is then computed on the basis of the competitive bids accepted. In some circumstances for government auctions it is the yield rather than the price which is bid.
