Italy is kicking off its 2026 financing plan with the issuance of dual Eurobonds. As political uncertainty elsewhere in Europe changes the flow of capital, Italy is capitalizing on strong investor demand for its debt. According to people familiar with the matter, Italy plans to issue a new 7-year benchmark bond and issue an additional 5 billion euros of green bonds due to expire on April 30, 2046. Commerzbank strategists expect shorter-term securities to raise up to 10 billion euros. According to people familiar with the matter, subscription demand has now exceeded 190 billion euros. People familiar with the matter said that the pricing of these two bonds is expected to be 7 and 8 basis points higher than similar bonds, respectively. At the time of this launch, Italy was becoming one of the preferred sovereign borrowers in the market. As France and other countries are plagued by political turmoil and large fiscal deficits, investors have praised the Italian government's efforts to consolidate its debt.
