New EMTN- issue with a maturity of 100 years

Today, the Kingdom of Belgium issued a 100-year EUR 50 million note in the framework of its EMTN-program.
The EUR 50 million note will be redeemed on 9 September 2115 and carries an annual coupon of 2.50%.
The deal was arranged by Goldmans Sachs International.
It is the inaugural issuance of the Kingdom in this tenor. Its low coupon reflects the strong credit profile of the issuer.
With this issuance, the Kingdom of Belgium establishes itself once again as a long-term issuer.
