Dubai property developers put bond plans on hold - sources

Reuters - UK Focus

DUBAI, Jan 21 (Reuters) - Dubai's Emaar Properties and state-owned developer Nakheel have put on hold plans to issue U.S. dollar-denominated bonds, Emaar and sources familiar with the bond issues said, amid a real estate downturn and volatility in emerging markets.

Emaar told Reuters that it had put on hold a planned bond issue, blaming rising interest rates but did not elaborate. Nakheel declined to comment.

Three financial sources said the firms had planned dollar-denominated Islamic sukuks, and would have had to pay a yield premium to attract enough investors due to concerns about Dubai's property price slide and emerging market volatility.
