Alphabet Plans First AUD Bond Issue with 20-Year Maximum Maturity

Alphabet hires banks for inaugural Australian dollar bond offering, targeting 3 to 20-year tenors. This follows a $25B USD issuance and signals continued global debt expansion.

Woofun AI reports that Alphabet has engaged financial institutions to prepare for its first-ever issuance of Australian dollar-denominated bonds. The company intends to offer maturities ranging from three to twenty years, with the longest tranche extending to two decades.

This move follows a recent $25 billion bond issuance in the U.S. dollar market across ten tranches earlier this month. Alphabet also plans to issue debt in Swiss francs, pounds, Euros, Canadian dollars, and yen by 2026, while having raised nearly $85 billion through equity offerings recently.
