Landbank is raising over P20 billion through a sustainability bond issuance in the fourth quarter of 2025, branded as 'Asenso bonds.'
The exact amount is not yet disclosed but will exceed P20 billion, with approvals already secured for a significant portion.
The bond tenor is likely between one to five years, considered the 'sweet spot' for investor interest.
The issuance may be launched in one or two tranches, with timing dependent on market conditions.
