Sembcorp subsidiary issues $300m fixed rate notes at 3.55%

Proceeds will be used for general corporate and working capital needs.

Sembcorp Industries (SCI) has priced $300m worth of 3.55% fixed-rate guaranteed notes due 2046 under its $5b Euro Medium Term Note Programme, the company announced on Tuesday.

The 21-year notes represent the longest-tenured unrated corporate bonds by a Singapore company in recent times. The issuance drew strong investor interest, with demand close to seven times the target size.

DBS, OCBC and UOB were joint managers for the deal.

Proceeds will be used for general corporate and working capital needs.

The notes are guaranteed by Sembcorp Industries and are expected to be listed on the Singapore Exchange on 3 July.

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.
