Gov't targets $500 M from new bond issue
The Philippine Star|August 29, 2024
The Marcos adminstration will borrow at least $500 million as it marks its second foray in the international debt market in a span of three months via the issuance of dollar and green bonds amid expectations of easing interest rates.
LOUISE MAUREEN SIMEON

A notice of issuance stated that the Philippines plans to raise at least $500 million from foreign sources by offering global bonds with tenors of 5.5 and 10.5 years as well as a 25-year sustainability bond.

This marks the third global bond issuance of the Marcos administration since it assumed office. This is also the second for the year or since raising $2 billion last May.

Proceeds of both the 5.5 and 10.5-year bonds will be used for general budget financing while the green bond is set to refinance assets in line with the country's sustainable finance framework.

Global bond issuances are a way to diversify the country's funding sources and constantly provide liquidity of Philippine global bonds in the international market.
