Abu Dhabi raises $5bn from first bond sale in seven years | The National:

"The emirate of Abu Dhabi has sold US$5 billion in sovereign bonds for the first time since 2009 as Arabian Gulf governments turn to debt markets amid a weaker oil price.

Abu Dhabi’s department of finance sold a $2.5bn tranche of 5-year bonds yielding 2.125 per cent and which mature on May 3, 2021, and another $2.5bn tranche of 10-year bonds yielding 3.125 per cent. Those bonds mature on May 3, 2026, according to market participants.

JP Morgan, Bank of America and Citigroup managed the sale."
