The notes pay compounded daily ZARONIA plus 2.005%, were issued at 100%, and mature on 31 January 2030. It is a funding and listing notice for the bank's own paper, not a signal about the bank's earnings or credit standing.","plain_english":"Standard Bank is borrowing ZAR269 million by selling notes to investors, who will earn interest linked to a local money-market rate plus a small margin until the notes mature in 2030.
