Description

As outlined in the Scottish Government Borrowing Memorandum (link below) the Scottish Government is continuing to work towards an inaugural Scottish Government Bond Issuance. For the next stage of the due diligence process the Scottish Government is seeking a financial advisor to assist in determining the specific conditions, and policy parameters, which will frame a successful Bond issuance. This will focus on, but not be limited to, the following: - Timing considerations for an inaugural issuance given market conditions and related events. - The frequency of issuances to best meet Scottish Government fiscal and economic objectives. - Consideration of formal “Use of Proceeds” such as “Green Bonds”. The link to the Scottish Government Borrowing Memorandum is: https://www.gov.scot/publications/scottish-budget-2025-2026-scottish-government-...
