Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF) said its latest green bond issuance, which raised $5.5 billion was oversubscribed more than six times with books exceeding $33 billion.

It was issued in three tranches, comprising of $1.75 billion with seven-year tenure, $2 billion with 12-year tenure and $1.75 billion with a 30-year tenure, PIF said in a statement on Friday.

The sovereign wealth fund did not disclose the pricing of the bonds. Reuters reported earlier, citing sources, that the seven-year paper was priced at 115 basis points (bps) over US Treasuries (UST), the 12-year at 145 bps over UST and the 30-year bonds at 185 bps over UST.

The bond was sold to a wide range of institutional investors globally, including Asia, PIF said.

Fahad AlSaif, Head of Global Capital Finance Division at PIF, said: "Strong demand from international institutional investors for this second issuance is a testament to the ongoing success of PIF’s capital raising strategy, its credit profile and financial strength.”
