CLCT prices $112m worth of FTZ offshore bonds at 3.8%

The bonds are due in three years.

CapitaLand China Trust’s (CLCT) wholly-owned subsidiary, CLCT MTN, has priced its inaugural free trade zone (FTZ) offshore yuan bonds due 2026 at 3.80%, payable annually in arrear.

The bonds will be listed and traded on the SGX-ST.

Net proceeds from the bond issuance will be on-lent to CLCT to refinance its existing indebtedness and/or to meet working capital requirements outside China.

In a bourse filing, CLCT’s manager said that the bonds worth CNY600m or $112m mark the company’s first issuance of bonds denominated in CNY within the China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone.

“FTZ offshore CNY bonds are issued within the China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone and are recorded in China Central Depository & Clearing Co., Ltd., offering foreign issuers a gateway to access a unique CNY investor pool and product,” CLCT’s manager said.

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.
