Nasdaq Dubai has announced the launch of the New Development Bank's (NDB) USD 50 billion Euro Medium Term Note (EMTN) Programme on its exchange. This initiative is designed to support NDB's mission to fund infrastructure and sustainable development projects in BRICS nations and other emerging economies. The UAE, a member of NDB since 2021, is strengthening its partnership with the bank through this programme. The EMTN Programme, which is also listed on the Financial Conduct Authority's register and the London Stock Exchange, is rated "AA" by Fitch and "AA+" by S&P. It offers NDB a flexible framework to issue debt instruments, enhancing its access to global capital markets. Established in 2015 by BRICS nations, NDB focuses on projects that promote economic growth, social inclusion, and environmental sustainability. The UAE's membership in NDB, with a capital subscription of USD 556 million, boosts the bank's financial capacity and global reach. Monale Ratsoma, NDB's Vice-President and Chief Financial Officer, highlighted that the listing on Nasdaq Dubai provides access to a broad investor base, aiding in the mobilization of long-term capital for development projects and aligning with the bank's strategy to diversify funding sources.
