Eurohypo has placed a new Global Jumbo Mortgage Pfandbrief worth €3 billion in the market. The benchmark issue launched as a Global Pfandbrief, which has a 6-year term up to 18 January 2012, features a 3.0% coupon. The issue price was set at 98.880, with a re-offer price of 98.705. The spread of the issue is equal to the swap rate (flat) and 11.4 basis points over the 5% January 2012 Bund.

The successful issue testifies to the strength and liquidity of the Pfandbrief market, said Eurohypo Management Board member Henning Rasche. Information published on the price spread with a flat area created astounding market momentum, which gave us the opportunity to increase the issuance volume from €2 billion to €3 million.
