Liability management pushes price of Yorkshire Water’s jumbo out
Yorkshire Water wowed the sterling market on Tuesday with a triple tranche transaction of 10 year, 30 year and long 30 year paper. After setting out to raise £575m, the utility grew the transaction to £650m, including £175m of inflation-linked bonds to mature in December 2039. However, Yorkshire Water Services’s exchange offer, to migrate its outstanding debt into a new ring-fenced structure that closed today, may have added up to 30bp to the price of yesterday’s bonds.
