AMP Notes offer successfully raises $296 million
AMP Group Finance Services Limited today announced the offer of AMP Notes had closed.
The Group successfully raised A$296 million from the issue of new securities called AMP Notes.
AMP will tomorrow issue A$202.7 million worth of A$ AMP Notes and NZ$115.5 million worth of NZ$ AMP Notes, at an issue price of A$100.00 and NZ$1.00 each respectively. AMP Notes are unsecured subordinated debt obligations of the Issuer. That means that, in the event of a winding up of the Issuer, holders' claims for payment on AMP Notes will rank behind the claims of all other creditors of the Issuer that are not subordinated to, or ranking equally with, AMP Notes.
A$ AMP Notes are expected to commence trading on a deferred settlement basis on ASX at 12.00pm (Sydney time) tomorrow under the code “AQNHA”. It is expected that trading on ASX will commence on a normal settlement basis on 17 April 2009.
NZ$ AMP Notes are expected to commence trading on a normal settlement basis on NZDX at 1pm (New Zealand time) tomorrow under the code “AQN010”.
