Madison, Wis., Aug. 28 – Yuanta Financial Holding Co., Ltd. announced that subsidiary Yuanta Bank priced NT$6.3 billion of fixed-rate subordinated financial debentures in two tranches.

Tranche A, totaling NT$1.6 billion, consists of 1.8% seven-year debentures, and tranche B, totaling NT$4.7 billion, consists of 2% 10-year debentures.
