Debt Capital Markets

Debt Capital Markets (DCM) has responsibility for origination, structuring, execution and syndication of a wide range of debt-related products, including bonds and asset-backed securities issued by corporate entities, financial institutions and local governments which are clients of SEB. DCM is also responsible for the syndication and loan agency services of all syndicated loan products originated by lending units within the LC&FI division.

Bond products offered include interest bearing securities which may be secured or unsecured, denominated in various currencies, senior or subordinated, listed or unlisted, rated (investment grade or high yield) or unrated. The purpose of a bond issuance may be for general corporate or other purposes including refinancing, financing of capital investments and financing of acquisitions among others. Bonds may bear a variety of characteristics specifically tailored to the specific requirements of issuers and investors. The debt securities most commonly provided include local currency issues in domestic markets under local law, private placements under EMTN or other standalone documentation, benchmark issues in the Eurobond market and Schuldscheine.
