CPHCL Company Limited has received regulatory approval from the Malta Financial Services Authority for the listing of €45 million in unsecured bonds due in 2035 at a coupon of 5.35 per cent by CPHCL Finance plc.
Established in 1966 as the holding company of the Corinthia Group, CPHCL has built a diversified portfolio spanning the property, services, and hospitality industries. The bonds, guaranteed by CPHCL Company Limited, will mature in 2035.
The company’s wide-ranging interests in Malta and overseas include a 58 per cent stake in International Hotel Investments (IHI – the owner of the Corinthia brand), 50 per cent in Mediterranean Investments Holding (MIH) which is the owner of Palm City residences in Libya, 65 per cent in Danish Bakery, 25 per cent in the Malta Fairs & Conventions Centre (MFCC), Palace Landscaping 100 per cent, Palace Concierge 100 per cent and Palazzo Leone 100 per cent.

CPHCL is also a 50 per cent partner in a JV with Attard Brothers, with the purpose of developing and selling residential and commercial properties.
At a consolidated level, CPHCL Group is forecasting revenues of €386.7 million for 2025. The group’s net assets are forecasted to amount to just over €1 billion by the end of 2025.
