Atlanta, Nov. 10 - The Republic of Peru priced a $2.5 billion-equivalent issue of notes due 2050 and 2020 via bookrunners Bank of America Merrill Lynch and Morgan Stanley, a market source said.
The deal included $1 billion 5 5/8% notes due Nov. 18, 2050 (Baa3/BBB-/BBB-), which priced at 96.164 to yield 5 7/8%, or Treasuries plus 160.3 basis points, in a Securities and Exchange Commission-registered transaction.
The tranche was talked at a yield in the 5 7/8% area.

The deal also included a S/.4.196 billion tap of the sovereign's 7.84% bonds due Nov. 12, 2020 (Baa3/BBB+/BBB), which priced at 114.718 to yield 5¾% in a Rule 144A and Regulation S transaction, a market source said.
