  • DBS Group , Southeast Asia's biggest bank, has raised $2 billion through a multi-tranche U.S. dollar senior bond issuance for general business purposes and to finance treasury activities, according to a term sheet seen by Reuters on Friday.

DBS Group Holdings Ltd., Singapore's largest bank, successfully raised $2 billion through the issuance of U.S. dollar bonds, as detailed in a term sheet. The bonds were split into two tranches: a $1 billion 5-year bond due in 2029 with a coupon rate of 5.479%, and another $1 billion 10-year bond due in 2034 with a coupon rate of 5.339%. These bonds were issued under DBS's $30 billion Global Medium Term Note Programme and were priced at a spread of 115 basis points over the 5-year U.S. Treasuries for the shorter-term bond and 135 basis points over the 10-year U.S. Treasuries for the longer-term bond. The issuance reflects DBS's strategy to diversify its funding sources and manage its interest rate risk amidst a backdrop of global economic uncertainty.
