Vienna – THE INFORMATION CONTAINED HERE IS NOT FOR PUBLICATION OR DISCLOSURE TO THE BZW. WITHIN THE UNITED STATES FROM AMERICA, TO OR WITHIN AUSTRALIA (S), CANADA (S) OR JAPAN (S) INTENDED.
The Management Board and the Supervisory Board of UNIQA Insurance Group AG (“UNIQA”) today, subject to market conditions, decided to issue a non-subordinated bond and a subordinated bond (Tier 2) and a minimum denomination of EUR 100,000 each (the “Bonds”). The target is an issue volume of around EUR 600 million gross for the non-subordinated bond (the “senior bond”) and an issue volume of around EUR 200 million gross for the subordinated (Tier2) bond (the “Tier 2 bond”).
Depending on current market conditions, the bonds are to be issued promptly and aimed exclusively at institutional investors in Germany and abroad. The approval of the bonds for official trading on the Vienna Stock Exchange should be applied for, subject to the approval of an admission prospectus.
UNIQA intends to use the net proceeds from the issuance of the senior bond to partially finance the purchase price for the acquisition of subsidiaries of the AXA Group in Poland, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, and to largely pass this on to UNIQA Österreich Versicherungen AG. It is envisaged that the amount of the net proceeds from the Tier 2 bond will be invested in suitable assets in accordance with the UNIQA Green Bond Framework.
HSBC Bank plc, JP Morgan Securities plc and Raiffeisen Bank International were mandated as joint bookrunners.
