Together raises £500m bond issue

Published on

Specialist lender Together has announced the issuance of £500m in six-year bonds at a coupon of 5.25%.

Demand meant Together increased the fund raising by £50m from its initial offering.

The proceeds from the issuance will be used to redeem £350m of existing bonds due to mature in 2024 and to support further growth in lending.

Marc Goldberg (pictured), commercial CEO at Together, said: “We are delighted with the success of the transaction, our second fund raising during the pandemic.

“The new issuance, which is our largest bond to date, was upsized by £50 million on the back of strong investor support and provides additional headroom as we continue to shape our business for an exciting future.”

Pete Ball, personal finance CEO at Together, added: “We continue to diversify and add depth of maturity to our funding platform to support our lending ambitions.

“We were delighted to be the first company to issue a sterling bond since the completion of the Brexit process. The transaction received strong demand from high quality investors and was many times over-subscribed.”
