Chilean chemical company Sociedad Quimica y Minera (SQM) has turned to Chadbourne & Parke LLP’s New York office and Chile’s Claro & Cía to issue notes worth US$250 million.
Bank of America Merrill Lynch, JP Morgan and Scotiabank acted as joint bookrunners and turned to the New York office of Simpson Thatcher & Bartlett LLP and Carey for the deal that closed on 28 October.

SQM, which is the world’s largest producer of potassium nitrate and iodine chemicals, will use the proceeds of the issuance to refinance its existing debt.
