Dubai Islamic Bank to revive Islamic bond deal postponed amid market turmoil - sources - Reuters:
Dubai Islamic Bank has revived plans to issue a U.S. dollar-denominated sukuk, or Islamic bond, sources familiar with the matter said, a deal the bank had postponed during financial market volatility earlier this year.
The United Arab Emirates’ largest shariah-compliant lender had hired a group of banks in February for a deal, which one source said would have been for around $750 million. The sale was postponed due to turbulent market conditions resulting from the new coronavirus outbreak.
The bank is now considering issuing the bond soon, two sources familiar with the matter said, with one of them saying the deal could happen as early as next Monday.
Dubai Islamic Bank did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
