what happened

Grupo Financiero Banamex said it raised $900 million through a sale of perpetual AT1 bonds that drew more demand than the amount on offer. The information was given in a company statement reported by Reuters.

AT1 bonds count as additional tier 1 capital for a bank and help it meet capital adequacy requirements.

why it matters

An oversubscribed deal suggests investors remain willing to fund Mexican banks even in the riskier part of the debt market. For markets, it signals that large Mexican lenders can still access capital on good terms.
