Certificados Bursátiles de Largo Plazo
or the “2023 CEBURES”) issued in 2023 . The reopening closed on February 20, 2024 and consisted of two tranches: the first of Ps2,000 at a floating annual interest rate of TIIE 28 plus 0.45%, and the second of Ps3,500 at a fixed annual interest rate of 11.48%.
