Poland plans Korea-Japan bond roadshow

Poland’s Ministry of Finance will go on a roadshow to meet investors from South Korea and Japan, though no yen-denominated bond issue is planned for this year, Deputy Finance Minister  Dorota Podedworna-Tarnowska was quoted as saying by ISBnews. The minister stressed that investors from these countries are important buyers of Polish debt, regardless of the currency it is issued in. “For the first time, the meetings with Japanese investors will be organized by banks with a treasury security dealer status,” Podedworna-Tarnowska said. The last time Poland issued debt on foreign markets was in September. The ministry then sold seven-year bonds with a face value of CHF 500 million. They mature on September 17, 2021.
