                    [Summary] => The government’s Eurobond offering has been increased to 500 million Euros or about $450 million from the original offering of $250 million as investors lapped up the strongly-received bond float of the Arroyo administration.


Finance officials said the offering was actually oversubscribed by as much as 800 million Euros but the Philippine government accepted only 500 million Euros.


Of the total issuance, about 60 percent was snagged by European investors, while about 20 percent each were distributed to Asian and American investors.

"there is a strong demand for the issue. I’m certain that with the favorable response, the issue will be oversubscribed," claimed Finance Secretary Jose Isidro Camacho yesterday.


Camacho added government has not yet settled on the final amount, including the final spread, saying this will depend on how the Eurobonds are received. The debt papers have a maturity of five years.
