Erdos | Katona has advised Cordia International Zrt. on Cordia International Zrt.’s July 23, 2020 HUF 36 billion bond issuance, made pursuant to the Bond Funding for Growth Program of the Hungarian National Bank. Allen & Overy advised Raiffeisen Bank, the lead arranger.

The bond issuance is Cordia’s second, following its HUF 44 billion bond issuance in 2019, and according to Erdos | Katona, "by closing this issuance successfully, Cordia has obtained access to funds on preferable rate and yield."
