New Issue: Philippines' Banco De Oro Unibank lifts tier 2 notes to PHP 8 billion

By Marisa Wong

Madison, Wis., June 16 - Banco De Oro Unibank, Inc. announced it increased the issue size of its subordinated tier 2 notes to at least PHP 8 billion from PHP 5 billion. The offer period for the notes closed on Wednesday, according to a bank press release.

The bank closed the offer period, which began on June 6, two days ahead of the originally scheduled close of June 17 due to oversubscription from retail and institutional investors. The bank said it received orders close to PHP 10 billion.

The notes were priced with a 6½% coupon and will have a maturity of 10 years and three months, with a call option exercisable after five years. The indicative interest rate is based on the 10-year PDST-F benchmark. Interest will be payable quarterly.

Proceeds will be used to fund expansion plans and enhance the bank's capital adequacy ratio.

Deutsche Bank AG, Manila Branch and the Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corp. Ltd. are the joint lead arrangers and selling agents. Multinational Investment Bancorporation is also a selling agent for the notes, and Banco De Oro, BDO Private Bank and BDO Capital are limited selling agents.

Settlement is expected June 27.

Banco de Oro is a lender based in Mandaluyong City, the Philippines, and is owned by SM Investments Corp.
