CanFin plans Rs 50-crore private placement
By Our Banking Bureau | 15 Feb 2002
A bank release here said that the issue will be priced at 9.30 per cent, payable half-yearly, and will have a tenor of seven years. But the issue will have a five-year call or put option, which means a spread of at least 2.5 per cent over the equivalent government security.
The funds will be used to refinance some of the high-cost debt of the company. This will lead to a reduction in the weighted average cost of working funds for CanFin.
