The purpose of raising funds with this tool is to finance projects that generate positive impacts on the environment and promote equitable and quality access to health, housing and education services.
“It is the first time that Peru has issued sustainable bonds and we join the countries that carry out this type of emissions. The high demand and the successful placement of these Peruvian global bonds are a confirmation that international investors continue to consider that Peru’s macroeconomic fundamentals remain solid, ”said the Minister of Economy and Finance, Pedro Francke.
The operation was carried out in a positive scenario motivated by a demand for investors which at its best exceeded US $ 10 billion, closing with a spread over the US Treasury of 150, 150 and 180 basis points for the 2034, 2051 and 2072 tranches, respectively.
