China Merchants Bank Co ( (HK:3968) ) has issued an update.
China Merchants Bank has completed the issuance of its 2026 Undated Additional Tier 1 Capital Bonds (Series 1) via Bond Connect in China’s national interbank bond market, following approval from the National Financial Regulatory Administration. The instrument, totaling RMB30 billion, carries a 2.05% coupon for the first five years, with rate resets every five years and conditional redemption options from the fifth year onward.
Proceeds from the bond issue will be used to replenish the bank’s additional Tier 1 capital in line with regulatory rules, strengthening its capital adequacy and loss-absorbing capacity. The move underscores the bank’s ongoing efforts to bolster its capital base through hybrid capital tools, which may enhance balance-sheet resilience and support future business growth while potentially diluting existing capital instruments’ relative share.
