Korea Development Bank eyes jumbo dollar issue

Korea Development Bank (KDB) officials have told FinanceAsia that the policy bank is interested in returning to the global bond markets in size next year, hoping to complete a $1 billion dollar-denominated offering in the first half. It would mark a return to large-sized dollar deals for KDB, which this year has limited itself to euro-denominated bonds and syndicated loans. Maturities remain in debate at the bank.
