     NETHERLANDS: The Dutch state is to issue green bonds as of 2019, Wopke

Hoekstra, the finance minister has announced. This would make the Netherlands

the first AAA-rated country to issue government bonds aimed at financing

sustainable investments.

EUROZONE: Syndication calendar in rest of 2018 set to be very light. MNI hears

from market sources there could be 10-Yr Greece nominal issue, Italy L/T Linker

but nothing confirmed.

- Market volatility may have dissuaded Athens from issuing in near future

(according to press reports from Oct 23 citing ESM and Greek Finance Minister).

EUROZONE: The EFSF, the European Financial Stability Facility (AA/(P)Aa1/AA) has

sent a Request for Proposal to a selection of banks from the EFSF/ESM Market

Group with regards to an upcoming transaction scheduled for the week of 05th

November 2018, subject to market conditions.
