Shelter Afrique\u2019s debut <\/strong>\u20a6<\/strong>46 billion bond issuance in Nigeria\u2019s capital market oversubscribed by 60.7%, reflecting strong investor appetite <\/strong>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Abuja, Nigeria \u2013 25 April 2022<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Company for Habitat and Housing in Africa (Shelter Afrique), the pan-African development finance institution exclusively dedicated to housing finance in Africa, is pleased to announce the successful completion of its debut \u20a646 billion (US$110.7 million) Series 1 Fixed Rate Senior Unsecured Bond Issuance in Nigeria\u2019s capital market under its \u20a6200 billion (US$481.3 million) bond issuance programme.<\/p>\n

The dual tranche bond issuance was 60.7% oversubscribed with the order book peaking at \u20a664.3 billion (US$154.6 million), enabling Shelter Afrique to exercise the \u2018green shoe\u2019 option and raise an additional \u20a66 billion (US$14.4 million) more than the original \u20a640 billion plan (US$96.3 million). The bond issuance attracted participation from a diverse range of institutional investors including pension funds, banks, and insurance companies, supported by an AA rating from GCR Ratings and an A+ rating from Agusto & Co. The high oversubscription demonstrates investors\u2019 confidence in Shelter Afrique\u2019s mandate to enable housing development in Africa, its strong management team, business strategy and credit profile. The 5-year Tranche A bonds priced at 13.00% and the 7-year Tranche B bonds priced at 13.25%. The tenors of the bonds are aligned with the organisation\u2019s housing finance strategy and plans in Nigeria. Shelter Afrique will use the bond proceeds to fund mass housing development by tier 1 real estate developers, and to provide lines of credit.<\/p>\n

FDSH Capital Limited acted as the Lead Issuing House while ARM Securities Limited, FCMB Capital Markets Limited and United Capital PLC acted as the Joint Issuing Houses to the bond issuance. Other professional parties include Aluko & Oyebode and Banwo & Ighodalo who acted as Solicitors to the Issue\/Issuer and Solicitors to the Trustee respectively. United Capital Trustees Limited and CardinalStone Registrars Limited acted as the Trustee and Registrar respectively. The Receiving Banks include FSDH Merchant Bank Limited, Stanbic IBTC PLC and United Bank for Africa PLC.<\/p>\n

Announcing the result, Shelter Afrique\u2019s Acting Managing Director, Kingsley Muwowo expressed delight at the success of the bond issuance and thanked the Issuing Houses and other professional parties for the timely and successful completion of the bond issuance. He also extended his appreciation to the Federal Government of Nigeria through the Ministry of Finance, Budget and National Planning; the Securities and Exchange Commission; the National Pension Commission, and the Ministry of Works and Housing. He thanked the Board of Directors, Management and Staff of Shelter Afrique for their invaluable support throughout the process.<\/p>\n

Mr. Muwowo noted that: \u201cthis is the first time Shelter Afrique is tapping the Nigerian debt capital market and the positive market reception is a clear indication of investor confidence in our long-term value proposition for the Nigerian housing market. We would like to assure our investors that we shall put the proceeds of the bond issue into good use that will ensure that more value is created for them\u201d.<\/p>\n

Mr. Muwowo said the issuance of the Naira-denominated bonds reflects the organisation\u2019s desire to focus on tailor-made, long-term funding solutions for the provision of affordable and adequate housing in Nigeria and across Africa. He also noted that the volatile foreign exchange rate regimes in most member countries is one of the major challenges of financing affordable and decent housing in Africa.\u00a0 He explained that: \u201cConstant currency fluctuations make it difficult for those who borrow in foreign currencies to honour their loans because of the foreign exchange exposure risks. Through this bond issuance, developers and primary mortgage lenders in Nigeria will be able to access funding in Naira, thereby reducing such risks\u201d.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the signing ceremony held in Lagos, Nigeria, the Managing Director of FSDH Capital Limited, Tolu Osinibi, said: \u201cFSDH Capital is pleased to have advised Shelter Afrique on its successful debut bond issuance in Nigeria\u2019s capital market. Shelter Afrique continues to play a pivotal role in housing development across Africa and the success of the bond issuance will encourage other supranational financial institutions to tap Nigeria\u2019s debt capital market for their Naira funding needs. We thank the investor community for their support on the bond issuance. We also thank the Board and management of Shelter Afrique for trusting us with this milestone transaction, and their commitment and dedication throughout the process.\u201d<\/p>\n
