World Bank pleased with domestic bid in new Kangaroo [UPDATED]

World Bank marked its return to the Kangaroo market after a year-long absence with a higher proportion of domestic demand in the shorter-dated of the two tranches than has generally been the case in Kangaroos in 2012. The issuer says it was pleased to achieve the volume of demand – A$1.05 billion (US$1.1 billion) in total – the transaction attracted, which enabled an upsize of A$450 million across both tranches.
