On December 15, 2020, Dream Industrial REIT announced its private placement of senior unsecured debentures.

The offering is made by a syndicate of agents led by TD Securities Inc., Scotia Capital Inc. and RBC Dominion Securities Inc. Dream has entered into a cross currency interest swap arrangement to convert the proceeds from the offering into Euros, which is expected to result in an effective yield of 0.49%. The proceeds from the offering will be used to fund future acquisitions, repay existing debt and for general trust purposes.
