Singapore-listed Hong Kong commodities firm Noble Group (NOBG.SI) said on Friday it plans to issue senior notes but did not give details of the amount to be raised or any time frame.

The net proceeds from the issue will be used for general corporate purposes, the firm said in a statement, adding further details would be announced after pricing.

 

Noble said it has appointed JP Morgan as the bookrunner and lead manager of the notes offering. 

 

The firm also requested for a trading halt on its shares to be lifted.
