The Egyptian government says the successful issuance of the US$750 million bond is a vote of confidence to Zambia from the international investor community.
Egyptian ambassador to Zambia Salah El Sadek says the overwhelming response to Zambia’s first sovereign bond shows that investors have confidence that they are putting their money in the right hands.
Ambassador Sadek notes that as an economist himself, he believes that there are no charities in the business world.
Speaking to QFM, Ambassador Sadek says the issuance of the bond is a great success for Zambia.
Zambia is poised for unprecedented infrastructure development following the successful issuance of the 750 million United States dollars Eurobond on the international market.
