KŠB advised J&T BANK on issuing CZK and EUR perpetual bonds

The first, September 2015 issue amounted to CZK 1 billion, with each bond having the nominal value of CZK 100,000, while the second, December 2015 issue amounted to EUR 50 million, with each bond having the nominal value of EUR 5,000. In addition to the Czech market, the EUR bonds are available on the Slovak market, which required cooperation from both the Czech and Slovak National Banks in providing the bonds’ prospectus with the so-called passport. The bonds are counted as Tier 1 capital.
