Nigeria to postpone debut Eurobond - sources

LAGOS, Dec 10 (Reuters) - Nigeria is likely to delay a debut $500 million Eurobond originally planned for this year because of volatility in global markets, sources familiar with the transaction said on Friday. Sub-Saharan Africa’s second-biggest economy had planned a roadshow to the United States next week and aimed to complete the issue by the end of the year, but the plans were put on hold at the eleventh hour because of market volatility due partly to the debt crisis in Europe, sources said.
