SCBC prices tight with first soft bullet

The Swedish Covered Bond Corporation (SBAB) was set to issue a €1bn deal at a historically tight level of 1bp over mid-swaps on a comfortably oversubscribed book on Tuesday. Although the issuer has been out of the market for three years and is considered a solid credit, the deal lacked some of the sparkle of issues seen earlier this month, possibly due to its soft bullet structure.
