Ageas successfully places EUR 450 million restricted Tier 1 Notes
Today ageas SA/NV successfully placed subordinated debt securities for an aggregate principal amount of EUR 450 million in the form of Perpetual Subordinated Fixed Rate Resettable Temporary Write-Down Restricted Tier 1 Notes (the “Notes”). The issuance generated substantial interest and was more than 5 times oversubscribed.
The Notes will be issued in denominations of EUR 200,000 at a re-offer price of 100 with a fixed coupon rate of 5.875% payable annually with reset in November 20, 2034 (no step-up) and every 5 years thereafter. The Notes have no scheduled maturity date and, except in certain limited circumstances, may not be redeemed by ageas SA/NV before the six-month period preceding November 20, 2034.
The Notes will qualify as restricted Tier 1 capital for both Ageas Group and ageas SA/NV under European regulatory capital requirements for insurers (Solvency II) and are expected to be rated BBB+ by Standard & Poor’s and BBB+ by Fitch.
Application has been made for the Notes to be listed on the official list and admitted to trading on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange’s Euro MTF market. The Notes are expected to be settled on December 16, 2025.
The net proceeds from the Notes issuance will be allocated by ageas SA/NV to general corporate purposes and to optimise the capital structure of Ageas Group which will partially replace instruments that will no longer qualify under the Solvency II grandfathering provisions.
