Tui picks four banks for €1bn

Citigroup, Deutsche Bank, HVB and Royal Bank of Scotland have scooped the mandate to run a €1bn ($1.17bn) bond issue to fund European tourism company Tui's $2bn acquisition of container shipping company, CP Ships.

A banker close to the deal said the €1bn bond is likely to comprise around €700m of senior bonds and €300m of hybrid bonds, the closest form of debt to equity. The issue is expected in the next few weeks.
