AIB and Bankinter show periphery immune to Greek woes

After pulling a 10 year deal last year, AIB Mortgage Bank returned to the market on Tuesday to price a very successful seven year. At the same time its Spanish peer, Bankinter, chose to issue in the same 10 year maturity that foiled AIB last year. Both banks achieved a solid result suggesting better quality peripheral covered bond issuers have not been affected by events in Greece.
