The issuance of the bond, according to the Finance Minister will serve as a medium to long-term debt instrument.

The ministry adds that the selected advisers will be required to provide but not limited to advisory, guidance and driving international market funding program process as well as structuring and documentation of the programme.

The various segment of the programme will however include Eurobonds, Diaspora Bonds, Sustainable or Green Bonds and the Syndicated Term Bonds.
