Investec gets sterling lower tier two away, while Sabadell and BBK complete LM

Investec priced the first sterling tier two deal since April 2010 on February 11, a £500m bullet 11 year issue via Barclays Capital, Investec and Lloyds CM. However, while the leads on the trade were pleased with the outcome, they said the issue did not herald a full re-opening of the subordinated market.
