Banca March has been mandated as arranger of a new short-term fixed-income programme for Zener Encitel, S.L. for a maximum amount of 50 million euros. The programme has been registered today on the Alternative Fixed Income Market (MARF), with Banca March acting as arranger, paying agent and dealer.
The securities issued will be denominated in euros and may have different maturity dates of up to 24 months. Zener Encitel will therefore be able to harness this programme as an alternative to bank financing.

For most of these transactions, the bank has undertaken all three of the key commercial paper market roles: arranger, agent bank and dealer.
