Mubadala seeks investors for bonds

Mubadala plans to launch its first corporate bond sale in the latest sign that government companies are returning to the debt markets.

The Abu Dhabi Government-owned investment fund plans a series of meetings with investors in Europe and the US, according to a circular sent to potential investors from bankers at Citigroup, Goldman Sachs and the Royal Bank of Scotland, who have been hired to arrange meetings.

“Abu Dhabi has created a very good precedent and a pricing and risk benchmark for further issues,” said Phillip Lotter, a sovereign bond analyst at the ratings agency Moody’s.
