According to Bloomberg Markets, the Laotian government is returning to the global bond market, seeking to issue potential CCC-rated dollar bonds to international investors. This comes less than a year after its return to the market in 2025 with a $300 million dollar bond issuance, and marks its second dollar debt sale since 2019. The Lao People's Democratic Republic has appointed Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group and Seaport Global Holdings as joint lead managers for the potential five-year senior unsecured notes.
