The transaction was led by Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan, Nomura, and Scotiabank as lead managers. The financial institutions highlighted the results of the issuance and noted that the high demand demonstrates market confidence in IDB Invest, even amidst an international context marked by financial volatility and geopolitical tensions.
With this new placement, IDB Invest continues to strengthen its presence in international capital markets and expand its capacity to boost private sector development in Latin America and the Caribbean.
