Caltex advances bookbuild as retail momentum builds again

Continuing demand for retail fixed income transactions in Australia allowed Caltex Australia (Caltex) to bring forward the bookbuild date for its subordinated notes offer to August 3 – from August 8 – and to nearly double the size of the offer at the tighter end of its indicative pricing range. Caltex allocated A$525 million (US$555.1 million) through its bookbuild, at a margin of 450 basis points over bank bills.
