An announcement from Macquarie Group Limited ( (AU:MQG) ) is now available.
Macquarie Bank Limited has issued A$1.25 billion of subordinated notes, comprising A$400 million fixed-to-floating rate and A$850 million floating rate instruments, both maturing in August 2036 and exchangeable into Macquarie Group ordinary shares upon a non-viability event. The subordinated notes qualify as Tier 2 regulatory capital under APRA rules, increasing Macquarie Bank’s total liabilities and Tier 2 Capital by the issue amount, thereby strengthening the group’s regulatory capital position and funding flexibility.
The issue sits under Macquarie Bank’s A$10 billion Subordinated Tier 2 Debt Instrument Programme and is intended to support ongoing compliance with capital requirements while offering investors exposure to subordinated bank debt with equity conversion features. By lodging the required cleansing notice, Macquarie enables any Macquarie Group ordinary shares issued on exchange of the notes to be on-sold to retail investors without further disclosure, facilitating secondary market liquidity and broadening potential investor participation over time.
The most recent analyst rating on (AU:MQG) stock is a Hold with a A$223.52 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Macquarie Group Limited stock, see the AU:MQG Stock Forecast page.
