Qatar raises record $12 billion in first bond sale since 2016

Qatar raised $12 billion in its first dollar bond sale in two years and it is the biggest dollar bond from an emerging-market nation this year, according to Bloomberg.

The Thursday (April 12th) sale eclipsed Saudi Arabia's $11 billion bond issued earlier this week and received more than $53 billion in bids, AFP reported.

It is the first time Qatar has returned to the international bond market since the emirate found itself at the centre of an entrenched regional dispute.
