Australia’s leading independent law firm, Corrs Chambers Westgarth, has advised the dealers and joint lead managers, ANZ, Bank of China, Mizuho, MUFG and NAB, on the establishment of Qube’s A$2 billion Australian debt issuance programme and debut issuances.
Qube is Australia’s largest integrated provider of import and export logistics services with national operations. Its debut as a rated issuer in the Australian wholesale debt capital markets has allowed it to diversify and lengthen its debt profile.
Led by partner Jo Dodd and supported by Chloe Delahunt-Devlin and other experts across the banking and finance practice, Corrs advised the banks on all aspects of the transaction.
Commenting on the matter, Jo Dodd said: “We are very pleased to have advised the dealer group on this significant transaction in the Australian debt capital markets. This marks Qube’s debut issuance as a rated entity, transitioning into longer-term funding from wholesale debt investors.
“The transaction enhances Corrs reputation in the market as a top-tier, trusted adviser on debt capital markets transactions.”
