Republic of Austria launches first exchangeable bond

Merrill Lynch and JP Morgan have built on their relationship with Telekom Austria by leading the Republic of Austria's first equity-linked bond, a €325m ($372m) exchangeable into Telekom Austria shares.

In November 2002, Merrill and JP Morgan were joint bookrunners of Telecom Italia's €489m sale of shares in Telekom Austria, the equivalent of a year's trading volume in the stock.
