Investor orders for Alibaba’s $7bn bond sale on Wednesday reached $41bn, according to two people familiar with the sale.

据两位知情人士透露，阿里巴巴(Alibaba)周三发行的70亿美元债券获得了410亿美元的投资者认购。

The company was poised to raise the capital across five-maturities ranging from 5.5 to 40 years, with $700m of new 5.5 year notes set to yield 73 basis points above benchmark Treasuries and the new 10-year bonds set to yield 108 basis points above similarly maturing US government bonds.

该公司准备分五个期限(从5.5年到40年)筹集这笔资金，其中7亿美元5.5年期新票据的收益率将比基准的美国国债高出73个基点，而10年期新债券的收益率将比同期美国国债高出108个基点。

Alibaba was also set to raise new 20-year debt with a spread of 118 basis points, 30-year bonds with a spread of 138 basis points, and 40-year paper with a spread of 158 basis points, according to a pricing sheet seen by the FT.

据英国《金融时报》看到的定价表单显示，阿里巴巴还计划新的20年期债券利差为118个基点，30年期债券利差为138个基点，40年期债券利差为158个基点。

The strong investor demand allowed bankers underwriting the transaction — led by Morgan Stanley, Citigroup, Credit Suisse, Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan — to tighten the terms on the deal.

强劲的投资者需求让承销这笔交易的银行家们——由摩根士丹利(Morgan Stanley)、花旗集团(Citigroup)、瑞信(Credit Suisse)、高盛(Goldman Sachs)和摩根大通(JPMorgan)牵头——得以收紧交易条款。
