Sri Lanka prices $1.25 billion Eurobond (NR/B+/BB-) with an 8.25% coupon and offered at Treasuries +397.2bps for a five year tenor. The offer was oversubscribed 3.2 times. Credit default swaps on the issue were trading at 360bps.
Is anyone longing the swaps for a country currently fighting a civil war? It might be an interesting play considering a similar offering by Pakistan ($750m,10years @ 6.875%), who with the return of Benazir Bhutto, is facing a disruption themselves.
