DBS authorises US$10 billion debt issuance programme
One of Asia's biggest financial institutions has established a Debt Issuance Programme to issue senior debt securities (the “Notes”).
DBS Bank Ltd. (DBS) said the application has been issued to the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited (SGX-ST) for permission to deal in, and for quotation of, to be listed on the SGX-ST.
“Such permission will be granted when such Notes have been admitted to the Official List of the SGX-ST,” the statement from DBS said Thursday.
