Raffles Education plans $20m bond issue

It will be issued under Singapore's Securities and Futures Act 2001.

Raffles Education Limited has announced plans to raise up to $20m through the issuance of unlisted, 5-year unsecured bonds.

The bonds, offering an annual interest rate of 10.5%, will be issued under the "safe harbour" exemptions of Singapore's Securities and Futures Act 2001.

The principal amount for the bond issue will be capped at $20m, with the issue price set at 100% of the principal amount. Each bond will bear interest at 10.5% per annum and will be issued in registered form with a minimum denomination of $250,000.

These bonds will constitute direct, unsubordinated, unconditional, and unsecured obligations of the company, ranking equally with other present and future obligations.

The bonds will mature five years from the issue date. The company has the option to redeem the bonds, in whole and not in part, prior to maturity with at least 30 days' notice at 100% of their principal amount. If not redeemed earlier, the bonds will be redeemed at 100% of their principal amount on the maturity date.

The bonds will not be listed on any stock exchange and will be governed by Singapore law.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
