L’Agefi: What are your financing goals for 2017?
Luxembourg - The European Financial Stability Facility (EFSF) on Wednesday raised €2 billion in a tap of its 31 May 2026 bond. With this transaction, the EFSF has completed its funding needs for the year.
“Today’s transaction marked a successful finale to the EFSF’s funding programme for 2016. It enabled us to increase the size of the 2026 bond, which provides more liquidity for investors, at a rate that is favourable for our programme countries,” said Siegfried Ruhl, EFSF head of funding.
