Issuing the 1 st Corporate Bonds In Palestine
Issuing the 1 st Corporate Bonds In Palestine PADICO Holding has concluded all preparations required to issue the first corporate bonds in Palestine. The bonds will be privately placed to local and regional banking institutions operating in Palestine. The bonds will be issued as Senior debt secured by specific assets with a total par value of 70,000,000 USD, non convertible, with 5 year maturity. The coupon rate will amount to 5% fixed interest rate for the first 30 months, variable interest rate for the following 30 months equal to 6 months US LIBOR + 2.5%, with a floor of 5%. Several banks and financial institutions have expressed interest and commitment to purchase PADICO HOLDING s bonds upon their issuance, which will lead to an oversubscription. Issuing the first Palestinian corporate bonds is considered a major milestone for the Palestinian financial services sector because it does not provide long term financing tools specialized in project financing outside the customary bank loans. Issuing corporate bonds will enable PADICO HOLDING finance its new projects, and enhance its ability to restructure the company s debt in an efficient manner.
Launching The 1 st GDR Program Out Of Palestine
Launching The 1 st GDR Program Out Of Palestine PADICO HOLDING has launched yesterday the first GDR program out of Palestine, in cooperation with BNY Mellon as the Depositary Bank. Each PADICO GDR represents 5 ordinary shares and trades on the London overthe-counter (OTC) market. Launching the GDR program will help PADICO HOLDING retain a wider international coverage by diversifying and expanding its shareholders base, thereby positively impacting the company s share price and its stability. The first Palestinian GDR program is considered a true milestone for the Palestinian securities market in general, especially since this new financial vehicle will attract additional institutional investors and foreign funds to the Palestinian market, and encourage them to look for business opportunities in it. It will also contribute to promoting the local market s stability and lead to enhanced trading volumes.
