Fiserv hits up market to fund First Data purchase

摘要

Financial services technology provider fiserv took the plunge in an up market last week when it priced a USS9bn four-part bond to help fund its USS22bn purchase of First Data - the largest digital payments acquisition ever. Order books on the deal swelled to US$31bn before noon as investors cheered US President Donald Trump's decision to abandon tariff hikes on Mexico over the weekend.
