Five borrowers hop long with Kangaroo taps

Four European agencies, and a New Zealand sub-sovereign found funds in the Kangaroo market this week. Nederlandse Waterschapsbank (NWB) on Tuesday priced a 10 year tap of a Kangaroo bond some 10bp tighter than where the original issue priced in January. Bankers said the pricing was an indication of the sheer levels of demand for long dated Kangaroo paper.
