  • UOB Advances Singapore's SORA Transition with the First Capital
    UOB advances Singapore’s SORA transition with the first capital securities resettable against SORA Overnight Indexed Swap rate Singapore, 8 January 2021 – UOB has successfully priced Singapore’s first capital securities with a reset coupon rate that references the Singapore Overnight Rate Average Overnight Indexed Swap (SORA-OIS) rate1. The Bank’s latest issuance underpins its commitment to promoting the adoption of a SORA-based pricing benchmark in the Singapore dollar (SGD) bond market. Mr Lee Wai Fai, Group Chief Financial Officer, UOB, said, “2021 is an important year in Singapore’s transition to a SORA-centered interest rate market and UOB is pleased to be the first issuer to reference SORA for a capital security. This transaction is another step to encourage the use of the new benchmark rate for pricing in the SGD bond market as part of broader industry efforts to develop deep and robust SORA-based cash and derivative markets. As the industry progresses on the transition to SORA, we will continue to step up our efforts and play our part in expanding the use of SORA across more financial products.” The reset coupon rate of UOB’s perpetual, non-call five-year additional Tier 1 (AT1) securities on the first call date2 will reference the five-year SORA-OIS rate, instead of the five-year Swap Offer Rate (SOR) interest rate swap (IRS) that had been the benchmark reference rate in the market. SORA had earlier been identified by The Association of Banks in Singapore (ABS) and Singapore Foreign Exchange Market Committee (SFEMC) as the rate to replace SOR in the SGD cash and derivatives market3.
