Note: This is a new League Table initiated in October 2009 when the Australian sovereign and semi-governments started issuing bonds via syndication as well as tender. It includes all deals from Australian Commonwealth and semi-government issuers done on a bookbuilt basis, as well as transactions from other Australian agency issuers.
