McMillan Advises the Government of Canada on its Ukraine Sovereignty Bond Issuance

Last month, the Government of Canada completed its $500 million Ukraine Sovereignty Bond issuance. The funds will assist the Government of Ukraine so it can continue to provide essential services to Ukrainians this winter, such as pensions, the purchasing of fuel, and restoring energy infrastructure.

The firm’s involvement in the deal was a nationwide, multidisciplinary effort, involving a diverse team of legal professionals including experts across the fields of financial services, securities and capital markets.
