3 Key Points

  1. 1

    What happened: On June 8, Amazon completed the sale of C$14 billion(約2.2兆円) ($10 billion(約1.6兆円)) in investment-grade bonds in Canada, marking the largest corporate bond offering in Canadian dollars. The bonds were offered across five tranches with maturities ranging from 3 to 30 years.

  2. 2

    Why it matters: Amazon is rapidly expanding its spending on AI and cloud computing infrastructure, having already announced plans to spend about $200 billion(約32兆円) on data centers, chips, and related infrastructure. The company has borrowed more than $70 billion(約11兆円) since the start of 2025 to finance this expansion, and this bond offering shows it is diversifying its funding sources to support the growth strategy.

  3. 3

    What to watch: The longest-maturity tranche carries a yield of 1.10% above government bonds. The offering drew C$28 billion(約4.5兆円) in orders from investors, indicating strong demand for Canadian dollar-denominated corporate debt.
