LAGOS (Capital Markets in Africa) – Nigeria plans to issue a Eurobond of at least $2.5 billion on Monday, says Kevin Daly, a money manager at Standard Life Aberdeen, who attended an investor meeting with officials from the nation in London Thursday. Nigerian delegation included Finance Minister Kemi Adeosun, central bank Governor Godwin Emefiele, head of the Debt Management Office, Patience Oniha, and Ben Akabueze, head of the budget office. Nigeria may increase the size of the 10- and 30-year transaction, depending on the demand from investors, said Daly.
