TOKYO (Reuters) – Japan’s Nissan Motor Co will factor $8 billion in dollar-denominated debt and are euro-denominated bonds, he said Friday, as the struggling automaker seeks to diversify its financing.

The sale of bonds is his first dollar-denominated factor since his merger with Renault SA in 1999, a Nissan representative said.

The move comes when investors have expressed growing fear about Nissan, which warned of a record $4. 5 billion loss this year, as the pandemic hampers its recovery efforts.

In addition, IFR announced that Nissan would sell about 2 billion euros ($2. 37 billion) of euro-denominated debt. A Nissan spokeswoman said a broadcast under discussion, without confirming the figure.

The company will sell a 3-year $1. 5 billion bond with a coupon of 3,043% and a 5-year bond of $1. 5 billion with a coupon of 3. 522%, according to the IFR.

His 7-year $2. 5 billion bond has a coupon of 4. 345% and a 10-year bond of $2. 5 billion on a 4. 81% coupon, the IFR said.

Nissan had pledged to reduce annual constant prices by three hundred billion yen ($2. 83 billion) and become a smaller and more efficient company. Japan’s second-largest automaker is looking for immediate expansion that has left it with depressing margins and an aging portfolio.

His business also shook with the arrest of Chief Carlos Ghosn.
