New Issue: Korea's Shinhan Bank sells $350 million 30-year hybrid securities to yield Treasuries plus 205 bps

By Paul A. Harris

St. Louis, Sept. 13 - Shinhan Bank priced a $350 million issue of 6.819% 30-year hybrid tier 1 securities (Baa2/BBB/BBB+) to yield 205 basis points over Treasuries, an informed source told Prospect News on Wednesday.

That spread came at the wide end of the Treasuries plus 200 to 205 basis points price talk.

The Seoul, Korea-based private retail bank issued the notes at a par dollar price.

Barclays Capital, ABN Amro, JP Morgan and Morgan Stanley were joint bookrunners for the Regulation S issue.

The notes become callable in 10 years; if they are not called at that time, the coupon steps up to three month Libor plus 252 basis points.
