KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 6 (Bernama) -- The International Islamic Liquidity Management Corporation (IILM) has completed the reissuance of an aggregate US$1.26 billion (US$1=RM4.47) short-term sukuk across three different series.
The three series comprise the issuance of US$340 million of one-month tenor at 5.15 per cent, US$540 million of three-month tenor at 5.17 per cent and US$380 million of six-month tenor at 5.00 per cent.
Chief executive officer Mohamad Safri Shahul Hamid said the combined orderbook in excess of US$2.91 billion represents an average bid-to-cover ratio of 231 per cent, which is also the largest orderbook year-to-date.
“Today’s auction also witnessed the participation of new investors from across the Gulf Cooperation Council and Asia, namely an Oman-based bank, a Qatari bank, and asset managers from Singapore and Malaysia, respectively.
“The increased participation by investors demonstrates the safe haven status of the IILM sukuk in a highly volatile market environment,” he said in a statement today.
The total amount of IILM Sukuk outstanding is currently at US$3.51 billion.
