Equinix issues its first Singaporean green bonds, raising $375 million

BY Reuters | CORPORATE | 03/18/25 12:21 AM EDT

SINGAPORE, March 18 (Reuters) - U.S. digital infrastructure company Equinix (EQIX) said on Tuesday that it has issued S$500 million ($375 million) in green bonds in its inaugural offering in the Singaporean market.

The Nasdaq-listed company said in a statement it intended to allocate an amount equal to the net proceeds from the green bonds to recently completed or future eligible green projects.

Equinix (EQIX) issued S$500 million in 3.50% senior notes due 2030 in the offering that closed on March 13, said the statement.

The issuance is the first time a U.S. company has accessed the Singapore dollar bond market in over five years.

DBS Bank and Standard Chartered (SCBFF) were joint global coordinators. They were also the joint lead managers and bookrunners with HSBC (HSBC) and OCBC, the statement showed.

In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Lower-quality debt securities generally offer higher yields, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes due to potential changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to loss.
