UBM receives Bond Magazine Award The renowned German trade journal Bond Magazine awards UBM Development AG under the small and medium companies as Best Issuer of the Year 2015. Evaluation criteria were the good structuring of the securities issued in November 2015 in terms of volume, use of funds, coupon and covenants, the operative development of the company and the high quality of communication between companies, bondholders and other stakeholders. It is noteworthy that the issue of the corporate bond 15-20 was not accompanied by an Austrian financial institution, but by the Berlin Quirin Bank AG. That a bond could be placed without the participation of Austrian banks was a milestone for UBM CEO Karl Bier on the road to greater independence in financing. “The award”, said the CEO, “will contribute to the position on the bond market. UBM thus expects an even better access to the market for SME bonds and better terms. ”
UBM is Austria’s leading property developer. The company is broadly based, covering the entire value chain from repurposing and planning permission to design, marketing, construction management and sales. It focuses on the Austrian, German and Polish markets and the residential, hotel and office asset classes. Real estate developments in the Czech Republic, the Netherlands and France help to diversify risk.
