                    [Summary] => 



The Asian Development Bank (ADB) is ready to sell more peso-denominated zero-coupon bonds should there be additional demand for peso loans in the country.


ADB country director for the Philippines Tom Crouch said that the P2.5 billion zero-coupon bond launched last Friday could have been launched two years ago.

The P2.5 billion peso-denominated bond was the fifth in the region in collaboration with the ADB. The earlier successful bond floats were in India, Malaysia, the People’s Republic of China, and Thailand.
