La Caixa ‘ambitious’ after Sabadell hits Eu1bn

La Caixa this (Thursday) morning launched the fourth cédulas in a week, a three year issue that bankers away from the leads said was ambitiously priced, after Banco Sabadell yesterday became the first Spanish issuer to reach a Eu1bn deal size since July. The Spanish covered bond was the only new benchmark in the market this morning, after issuers including CM-CIC and Royal Bank of Scotland wrapped up new issues yesterday.
