Our debt structure currently consists of:
Our strategy is to continue to diversify our funding, both in terms of sources and tenor. To that end, we intend to use the EMTN programme to access the debt capital markets when opportunities arise, either through benchmark public issues or private placements.
We will also consider accessing the debt capital markets via alternative routes if there are appropriate opportunities. We are prepared to issue debt in a range of tenors and in both fixed and floating interest rates.
Our functional currency is the US dollar and, therefore, our preference is to issue debt denominated in US dollars. However, we are prepared to issue debt in other currencies and manage the exchange rate risk separately.
