Malaysia's Maxis issues 840 mln rgt in first series of sukuk

KUALA LUMPUR, June 22 (Reuters) - Malaysian mobile phone operator Maxis Bhd said on Monday it had issued bonds worth 840 million ringgit ($225.20 million) in the first series of its Islamic bond programme.

The tenure is for 10 years from the issue date, according to a stock exchange filing.

Maxis, controlled by Malaysia's second richest man Ananda Krishnan, plans to raise as much as 5 billion ringgit from a 30-year unrated sukuk murabaha programme to refinance debt and fund capital requirements.

CIMB, sole principal adviser and lead arranger for the programme, was the sole lead manager for the issue.
