Dollar market hot to trot for triple-As
The dollar market is still the best place to be for sovereign, supranational and agency borrowers. This week KfW is printing a $4bn three year global bond at mid-swaps less 28bp and BNG a $1.25bn three year at less 17bp and both deals were oversubscribed, reflecting a seemingly bottomless pit of money still being directed at this sector. IADB is testing the 10 year market with a $1bn global and Kommunalbanken will try its luck today with a three year dollar. In stark contrast, the euro market is proving a much tougher proposition — NRW.Bank wanted to raise Eu1.5bn and managed only Eu1bn and Instituto de Credito Oficial struggled with its Eu1bn five year.
