Walmart, Americas largest retailer had the markets second largest debt issuance in the U.S. in 2019, selling $16 billion in 30 year bonds. The funds were to help finance the purchase of Flipkart, Indias largest online seller. Thanks to Walmarts high credit rating, the bonds were classified by Moodys (one of the top bond rating agencies) as Aa2, or very highly rated. The bond sale was managed by a syndicate of investment banks, including Barclays Plc, Citigroup Inc., JPMorgan Chase & Co., Bank of America Corp., HSBC Holdings Plc and Wells Fargo & Co.
