OCBC prices $450m capital securities at 4.05% first callable in 2029

The net proceeds will be used for OCBC’s general corporate purposes.

Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation (OCBC) has priced $450m perpetual capital securities first callable in 2029 at 4.05% under its US$30b (approx. $40b) Global Medium Term Note Program.

Net proceeds of the capital securities will be used for the general corporate purposes of OCBC.

The securities may be redeemed by the bank on the first reset date or any distribution payment date after, subject to MAS approval.

It may also be redeemed during a tax event or if the capital securities would no longer qualify as eligible capital. 

If the capital securities are not redeemed on the First Reset Date, the distribution rate will be reset on the first reset date and every five years thereafter to a fixed rate per annum equal to the aggregate of the 5-year SORA-OIS and the initial spread of 1.3165%.

OCBC is the sole lead manager and bookrunner for this issue.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
