Philippines sells $1.5b bond as US rate hike fears ebb

On the back of a buoyant market, Manila doubled what it raised from a similar dollar bond sale in 2018 and was the year's first Asia sovereign borrower out of the blocks.

The Republic of the Philippines took advantage of a constructive credit market environment to complete Asia’s first sovereign G3 bond of 2019 on Monday, pricing its 10-year US dollar bond offering at a time when US Treasury yields are near their lowest levels in nine months.
