Suncorp Group ( (AU:SUN) ) has shared an announcement.

Suncorp Group has launched an offer of Australian dollar-denominated wholesale Tier 2 subordinated notes, targeting institutional and other wholesale investors with a minimum subscription of $500,000 per investor. The notes, which are direct, unsecured, subordinated debt obligations, form part of the group’s broader funding and capital management strategy, with proceeds earmarked to bolster Tier 2 capital within its regulated entities and for general funding purposes.

The securities carry an 11-year term to June 2037, with an issuer call from June 2032 subject to APRA approval, and pay quarterly floating-rate interest based on BBSW plus a margin. The structure includes standard loss-absorption and non-viability conversion features, underscoring regulatory capital requirements, and highlights Suncorp’s continued use of wholesale markets to optimise its capital stack while shifting risk and potential loss absorption onto sophisticated investors rather than retail markets.
