The NAB Capital Notes 7 are convertible, subordinated notes that are scheduled to pay quarterly, floating rate, non-cumulative distributions (subject to certain conditions), and will qualify as Additional Tier 1 Capital for the purposes of NAB's regulatory capital requirements.
Allens has a leading practice advising on retail offerings of hybrid securities by APRA-regulated issuers. Over the last two decades, the Allens Equity Capital Markets team has advised the issuer or joint lead managers on multiple raisings by Commonwealth Bank of Australia, NAB, Bendigo and Adelaide Bank, Insurance Australia Group and Bank of Queensland.
'We are delighted to have had the opportunity to advise the joint lead managers on this important transaction for NAB, which is a continuation of our role advising the joint lead manager syndicates on all major capital equity raisings by NAB over the last 15 years,' said Robert Pick, co-head of Allens' Equity Capital Markets team.
