Reducing the country risk, the great opportunity to fit in the neighbourhood

Fifth week
March 2017

Last week there was a placement of International Bonds from the Republic of Paraguay. USS 500 million were issued with a maturity term of 10 years, and the investors’ appetite for these bonds was significant, given that demand was 6 times bigger than the issued amount. The interest rate should make us envious: 4.70% of annual coupon.

Although it could be considered to be an isolated event, it was not. The previous week, Bolivia had issued USD 1 billion with a 10-year term, at an annual rate of 4.50%.
