Seven days before the September 15 maturity of a A$1.7 billion (US$1.45 billion) Kangaroo line, Rentenbank (AAA/Aaa/AAA) increased the 2014 bond it inaugurated in July this year by A$200 million – the minimum target size for the transaction at launch a day earlier. The increase is the issuer's second Kangaroo transaction this year and brings the total outstanding in the line to A$650 million.
