--FILE--A Chinese employee is seen at an office building of the BRICS New Development Bank (NDB) in Shanghai, China, 1 December 2016. The BRICS New Development Bank (NDB) has plans to issue bonds twice this year, one denominated in Chinese yuan and the other in Indian rupee, president of the bank KV Kamath said Friday (14 April 2017). The bank sold its first 3 billion yuan ($437 million) yuan-denominated bonds in China last year in July to fund clean energy projects in member states. Kamath told Xinhua that following last year's issuance, the preparation for second batch of yuan-denominated bonds, possibly in the second half of this year, is expected to be more smooth. The size will be around 3 billion yuan, similar to the last one. He said the issuance will come after the bank is rated by international rating agencies. Between $300 million and $500 million of rupee-denominated masala bonds will be issued after July, Kamath added. Masala bonds are rupee-denominated bonds issued outside India.
