In its first bond syndication of 2022, the European Commission has today raised a further €5 billion in
NextGenerationEU funds on behalf of the EU in yet another successful deal. Due on 6 July 2051, the 30-
year bond – executed as an increase to an existing EU-Bond - brings the total financing raised under the
programme to €78.5 billion. The Commission's successful placement will help sustain the momentum
behind Europe's recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic.
The bond was nearly 13 times oversubscribed, achieving a total order book of €64.1 billion. This strong
demand enabled the Commission to place the bond under very good pricing conditions in a sign of the
strong confidence of investors in the NextGenerationEU programme.
