IDBI Bank to raise around $1 billion (about Rs 5,000 crore) over the next 12 months through bonds


State-owned IDBI Bank today said it would raise around $1 billion (about Rs 5,000 crore) over the next 12 months through bonds from overseas.

"We plan to raise $1 billion overseas in tranches over one year," IDBI Bank Chairman and Managing Director R M Malla told PTI.

The raising of funds would be done under Medium-Term Note (MTN) programme and they will be utilised to expand overseas operations through its Dubai branch.

The bank board had given approval for $1.5 billion MTN programme.

Last year, the bank raised $350 million via bond with a maturity of 5.5 years.
