Capital market financing

As a financier of progress, BayernLB is not only an established arranger of a most diverse array of capital market financing options for national and international customers, but is also active as an issuer across the entire product universe.

Are you a national or international permanent issuer, or perhaps a niche issuer? Or are you planning your debut issue? Our specialised origination team looks forward to using all the products and services in its toolbox to help you meet your own distinct financing needs

• Placement of high-volume covered and unsecured bonds, in benchmark or sub-benchmark format, on the primary market – across all maturity bands and segments
• Issuance in both the green and the social bond segments: our Bank is one of the few joint lead managers to have experience under its belt when it comes to transactions in either of these categories – know-how that we are happy to make available when structuring and arranging your ESG products for sustainable capital market financing
• Holistic advice and flexible arrangements for promissory note loans and registered bonds for financial institutions
• Tailor-made private placements in varying forms (e.g. bearer vs. registered bonds) and structures (plain, single callable, multi-callable etc.)
• Commercial paper as a short-term funding alternative

• Individual advice & flexible solutions: full issuance support – from the programme launch to the structuring stage, from the roadshow to the live deal, from the issuer to the (ESG) investor
• Placement power in the DACH region (Germany, Austria and Switzerland): BayernLB’s expansive reach, thanks to its long-standing ties to European Tier 1 and Tier 2 investors of high relevance, especially for covered & senior unsecured transactions
• Quality along the value chain: externally certified product knowledge and a solid understanding of the market based on in-depth, ongoing training
• A focus on sustainability: forward-looking advice on reconciling your funding management with the latest official ESG standards in a constantly changing environment of regulatory and product-specific requirements

Our successes to date as an arranger of numerous outstanding deals concluded by the issuers we serve, as well as of our own transactions, are not only the fruits of our labour but an incentive for the future.

To ensure the quality of our consulting and placement services in the context of a long-standing and long-lasting cooperation with our customers, we have been active in sector-based associations and specialist organisations, initiatives and working groups for many years, among them being

• ICMA (Green Bond Principles, Social Bond Principles, Impact Reporting Working Group etc.)
