The AIAF fixed income market, operated by BME, today registered a new 500 million euro bond issue from Inmobiliaria Colonial, with a coupon of 0.75% and a term of eight years.
The issue has a nominal amount per unit of 100,000 euros and during its placement investors demand was considerable, up to three times oversubscribed.
