Allianz has successfully completed its "All-in-one" capital market transactions. Both the index-linked exchangeable BITES and the subordinated bond received strong demand by investors and were oversubscribed many times. The issue size of the subordinated euro bond was increased by 40 percent from 1 billion to 1.4 billion euros.
Details of terms and conditions:
The exchangeable bond BITES (Basket Index Tracking Equity-linked Securities) is linked to the DAX Index and was issued at a DAX-reference level of 4,205.115. During the three-year term of this instrument, the issuer may choose to redeem the bond with shares of Munich Re AG, Siemens AG or BMW AG. Investors will receive an annual outperformance premium of 0.75 percent on the prevailing future DAX level and a repayment premium of 1.75 percent, based on the DAX level at redemption.
The subordinated bond, which will bear a coupon of 4.375 percent for the first 12 years, will be issued at a price of 98.923 percent, yielding 4.493 percent p.a. While this is a perpetual bond, it is callable by Allianz for the first time in 2017.
