Natixis is pleased to announce the issuance and sale of a Nikkei 225 & S&P 500 Multi Index Linked Uridashi bond by Natixis S.A., totaling JPY 20,777 million.
Natixis acted as joint bookrunner for the transaction, while Natixis Japan Securities Co., Ltd., the bank’s wholly owned subsidiary in Japan, acted as coordinator. It is Natixis’ third Uridashi issuance, following issuances in March and July this year.
At over six-times larger than the previous two bonds, this issuance reflects Natixis’ commitment to Japan and the increasing visibility of the bank among Japanese investors.
Natixis and Natixis Japan Securities also support regular debt issuances in Japan, including Samurai, Uridashi and Private Placements, by its parent company, Groupe BPCE, which has been an active issuer in Japan since 2012 and counts the country as a key market in the diversification of its funding.
