(MENAFN) ACWA Power, a Saudi water and power project developer, announced its will to sell USD800 million debut Islamic bond by the end of the current year, according to Arab News.
ACWA is willing to record a higher production capacity by 2017 at 38.000 megawatts of power.
The firm expects securing a credit rating to transfer it to an improvement and to launch Islamic bonds.
Chief executive Paddy Padmanathan said: “That was one of the things that kept us back for a while, and there was a decision (internally) around do we need to be rated as ratings are a one-way street – once you rate, you are stuck with the story forever,” as he does not expect the firm to come to market with a rating.
