New Issue: HSBC Bank sells $3 billion of notes in reallocated two tranches

By Andrea Heisinger

New York, May 17 - HSBC Bank plc sold $3 billion of notes (Aa2/AA/) in two parts on Tuesday as a floating-rate tranche was added, said a source away from the trade.

The $1.5 billion tranche of two-year floaters sold at par to yield three-month Libor plus 43 basis points.

Originally, the sale consisted of a five-year maturity. That $1.5 billion tranche of 3.1% five-year notes sold at 99.963 to yield 3.108%, or Treasuries plus 133 bps.

Both tranches are non-callable and priced under Rule 144A.

HSBC Securities ran the books.

The financial services company is based in London.
