Dubai bondholders are getting a $14.6 billion reason to drive the sheikhdom’s securities to fresh records.
Yields on the emirate’s dollar sukuk due in May 2022 fell eight basis points yesterday to 3.43 percent, within five points of a record low, as Dubai World reached a deal with a majority of creditors to reorganize about $14.6 billion of debt. As part of the agreement, the company will repay $2.92 billion due this year early, and extend obligations maturing in 2018 to 2022.
