Alphabet Plans First-Ever Australian Dollar Bond Issuance with Up to 20-Year Maturity

Odaily Planet Daily reported that Alphabet has hired banks to prepare for its inaugural Australian dollar bond issuance, covering four tenors—3-year, 5-year, 10-year, and 20-year—with the longest maturity reaching 20 years.

Earlier this month, Alphabet priced a $25 billion bond offering in the U.S. dollar market across 10 tranches, and in 2026 issued bonds in Swiss francs, British pounds, euros, Canadian dollars, and Japanese yen. The company also recently raised nearly $85 billion through an equity issuance. (Bloomberg)
