According to internal documents seen by Bloomberg News, the Japanese car maker plans to issue as much as 630bn yen in convertible securities and bonds, including high-yielding US dollar and euro notes.
Nissan also plans to take out a £1bn ($1.4bn) syndicated loan, guaranteed by UK Export Finance, Bloomberg said. Nissan operates Britain’s largest automaking hub, in Sunderland.
In addition, Nissan is seeking to sell part of the 15% stake it owns in Renault and the equity interest it has in battery maker AESC Group, as well as plants in South Africa and Mexico.
Sale-and-lease-back plans for its Yokohama headquarters, plus properties it owns in the US, are also reportedly on the cards.
