    Last week brought a slew of high quality deals, despite the ECB meeting on September 7 causing some issuers to hold off. Those that went ahead have been scored by the BondMarker voters. Read on to see how they did.
  • World Bank raised A$850m ($678.7m) in the Kangaroo market this week by printing a new September 2022 line, the largest Australian dollar SSA bond in the last three years.
  • A lack of five year dollar supply and an acceptance that since the summer issuers need to offer a bit more juice helped a pair of supranationals launch strong trades this week. Other supras are rumoured to be considering follow-on deals next week, although some bankers warn that investor appetite may be sated for the moment, and everything could hinge on how a sharp US Treasury move late on Thursday plays out.

  • Inter-American Development Bank won a big reception on Thursday as it completed its benchmark funding for the year with a five year dollar global that rode on the coattails of a similar trade by Asian Development Bank a day earlier. Agence Française de Développement also made a triumphant return to dollars after a pulled trade in February, as it matched its largest ever deal in the currency for size.
  • Inter-American Development Bank will on Thursday attempt a five year dollar benchmark, copying a Wednesday deal from Asian Development Bank that bankers on the trade said was the best dollar deal since the summer. Agence Française de Développement is also out with a dollar benchmark — its first since a pulled trade in February.

  • The Inter-American Development Bank raised A$100m ($76.1m) on Tuesday by tapping its June 2026 Australian dollar bonds, despite the remaining maturity falling short of where most long end Kangaroo demand resides. Meanwhile, Nederlandse Waterschapsbank responded to reverse enquiry, tapping its 3.5% July 2027 bonds for A$15m.
  • The Inter-American Development Bank is looking to tap its 4.25% June 2026 Australian dollar bonds, despite the remaining maturity falling short of where most long end Kangaroo demand resides.
