We plan to issue MREL-eligible bonds in Bulgaria, as well as in Romania and/or Greece, in the total amount of EUR 60 to 80 million, to support our business growth from a regulatory perspective.
Our plans include an issue in Bulgaria in Q1 2025 at a similar size to our previous bonds, before a possible pilot issue on the Greek or Romanian market in mid-summer. There is also a possibility of another issue in Bulgaria by the end of the year.
We are also planning to exercise our rights to repay previously issued bonds one year before their maturity. A similar action could only be performed if we obtain the necessary regulatory approvals and make a final decision on the matter, in accordance with the applicable banking legislation and the terms of the bonds.
Over the past three years we established tbi bank as one of the leaders in the Bulgarian corporate public bond market. Providing investors with attractive and flexible instruments in terms of maturity and return, we raised a total of 50 million EUR through different instruments.
