Primary issuance

Accessing a predictable cash flow to support your financing needs while keeping costs low is a challenge.

CDB AG puts issuers, lead managers, arrangers, issuer agents and legal counsels at the centre of the capital markets. We give you access to the largest and most diverse range of investors to raise the funds you need quickly and cost-effectively across multiple jurisdictions, currencies and instruments.

We support the success of your funding effort before, during and after issuance by enabling you to:

  • Build the optimal structure for your security – currency, legal jurisdiction, instrument – to meet you, and your investors needs
  • Reach a wide range of global investors to access the capital you require and build a predictable cash flow
  • Build and maintain investor loyalty with leading secondary market access, collateral management and asset servicing
