Written by: Adel Khelifi on November 4, 2026

The Tunisian Société de Banque (STB) announces the successful closing of the subscriptions to the subordinated bond loan “STB Subordonné 2026,” whose subscriptions opened as of October 19, 2026, in accordance with the notice published by the Financial Market Council (CMF).

This operation, authorised by the Ordinary General Assembly of April 30, 2026, is part of the Bank’s strategy to strengthen its supplementary own funds and to sustainably consolidate its financial structure in order to support the development of its activities and to back its growth ambitions.

The STB would like to stress that this issue does not address a cash flow or liquidity requirement.

The Bank has an excess cash position as well as very comfortable liquidity and transformation ratios, above regulatory requirements.

This operation is part of a proactive capital management approach aimed at strengthening supplementary equity, consolidating solvency ratios and increasing the Bank’s development capacity.

The closing of the entire amount of the issue before the originally planned maturity demonstrates the interest shown by investors throughout the placement period and reflects market confidence in the STB’s signature, its financial strength and its development prospects.

The success of this operation confirms the credibility of the strategy implemented by the Bank as well as its ability to sustainably mobilize the resources necessary to support the national economy while preserving solid financial balances.

On this occasion, the General Management extends its sincere thanks to all investors who participated in the operation, as well as to partners and teams who contributed to its success.

This issue constitutes a new step in the implementation of STB’s strategic plan and in its commitment to permanently strengthening its financial solidity, in the service of its customers, its shareholders and the Tunisian economy.
