what happened
Qatar National Bank has finished placing Shogun bonds denominated in Qatari riyals, its second such issue and the largest so far. The bank raised QAR 750 million from a range of Japanese investors.
Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC) arranged the transaction, according to Reuters.
why it matters
The deal shows that the Qatari lender can tap Japanese investors in its own currency, widening its funding base. Given the modest size, the effect on broader markets is limited and mainly concerns QNB and the riyal debt segment.
