Chicago, May 8 – Brazil’s Companhia de Transmissão de Energia Eletrica Paulista, or Cteep, said it issued R$621 million of 4.7% unsecured debentures due 2025 linked to the IPCA inflation index.

The amount will be restated annually according to the variation of the IPCA inflation index. The restated amount will accrue compensatory interest at a rate of 4.7% per year, base 252, calculated exponentially and cumulatively pro rata tempore from the first date of subscription and payment until the redemption date, according to a company announcement.
