Pakistan Raises $3 Billion in Dual-Tranche Eurobond Sale Amid Investor Demand
Pakistan raised $3 billion through a dual-tranche Eurobond sale, attracting nearly $6 billion in orders from international investors. The bonds include $1.75 billion with a 5.5-year maturity at 7.5% interest and $1.25 billion with a 10-year maturity at 7.9%. This marks Pakistan's largest single international bond issuance, reflecting renewed investor interest despite its junk credit rating and ongoing debt challenges. Officials view the sale as a step toward stabilizing foreign exchange reserves and reducing reliance on short-term loans.
