This follows the pricing of Tier 2 notes at 3.375%.

Aviva Singlife has received an outstanding investor demand with $3.5 billion (6.3x) in Tier 2 notes orders for the first bridge-to-bond transaction in SGD, a statement read.

This follows after the insurer priced $550m Reg S Only 10.25NC5.25 Tier 2 notes at 3.375% to outstanding investor demand, with the final order book exceeding $3.5b, a cover of more than 6.3x.

The final price guidance (FPG) was lowered by 37.5bps from initial price guidance (IPG) of 3.75% to 3.375% whilst retaining almost all of the entity’s book.

The deal was announced after two days of roadshow meetings, which were attended by 55 accounts across Asian and European investors, eventuating in a final order book in excess of $3.5b across 143 accounts.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
