BRASILIA, Feb 9 (Reuters) - Brazil's Treasury said on Monday it had mandated banks to issue dollar-denominated bonds in international markets, including a new 10-year benchmark maturing in 2036 and the reopening of its existing 30-year Global 2056 bond.
The operation, led by HSBC, JPMorgan, Santander and Sumitomo, aims to boost liquidity along Brazil's sovereign dollar yield curve, provide a pricing reference for corporate issuers and pre-fund upcoming foreign-currency debt maturities, the Treasury said, adding that the transaction results would be announced later on Monday.
