HDB launches S$7 bln debt programme

HDB, which houses 82% of Singapore’s resident population, introduces a medium term note programme that will finance its development programmes and raise working capital.

The Housing and Development Board of Singapore (HDB) announces on Tuesday that it is launching a S$7 billion medium term note programme. The issuance includes S$500 million in a 3-year Fixed Rate, payable semi-annually in arrears at 1.15% per annum, according to the HDB announcement.

Notes are said to be in denominations of S$250,000 and will be offered by way of placement to investors who fall within Sections 274 and/or 275 of the Securities and Futures Act, Chapter 289 of Singapore.

Deutsche Bank AG, Singapore Branch, will be the sole lead manager of the programme.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
