Indikativna cena (angl. IPT) določena na ravni okoli MS+195 bazičnih točk (bistveno nižje v primerjavi s prejšnjimi izdajami NLB) se je tekom postopka prodaje znižala za 30 bazičnih točk na končnih MS+165 bazičnih točk. Investitorji so prepoznali trdno boniteto, uspešno poslovanje in strateške usmeritve NLB Skupine, kar je skupaj z ugodnimi tržnimi razmerami vplivalo na to, da je bila ciljna višina obveznic 2,8-krat presežena. Naročila je oddalo več kot 100 visokokakovostnih domačih, regionalnih in mednarodnih vlagateljev.

North Macedonia is one of the strategically most important markets for the NLB Group, which maintains strong presence on the market. NLB Banka, Skopje is the Group's third largest bank in terms of total assets, holding a systemically important position with a market share of more than 16% measured by total assets and above 20% in retail loans and deposits respectively. On the other hand, we see many opportunities for growth. That's why we have already established a leasing company in North Macedonia at the end of 2022, and now we are completing our product portfolio with asset management services.
Blaž Brodnjak NLB's CEO
At NLB Group we believe in the development of investment products in the region of Southeast Europe. North Macedonia is particularly interesting in this regard, as the penetration of investment products is very low; on the other hand, the market is sufficiently developed and receptive to such an offer, therefore we see many opportunities for growth," said Luka Podlogar, President of the Management board of NLB Skladi. After the completion of the transaction, clients will soon be offered an expanded range of funds he added. He further explained that NLB Group intends to organize asset management under the umbrella of NLB Funds in the future.
