Plenty of capital on offer for ANZ
28 May 2009
 
The lack of a definite, and priced, target in Asia for ANZ to buy did not stand in the way of the bank drumming up ample demand from institutional investors for the sale of $2.5 billion in new shares yesterday.The bank also plans to sell several hundred million dollars in new shares to retail investors. Retail investors may buy $15,000 of new ANZ shares with transaction costs borne by the bank.ANZ sold the shares at $14.40, an eight per cent discount to the share price of $15.57 on Tuesday. JP Morgan, UBS and Deutsche underwrote the share sale. ANZ is certain to use the firepower to see that it is the top bidder for some – and, perhaps to their surprise, even all – of the RBS banking businesses for sale in Asia.
